Labour Claims and Debate Over Voting Cards
Labour supporters disputed blame for the defeat of Labour candidates in the Advisory Council election. They noted that preferences electing Mr Ellis to the third seat did not come from Labour backers, and that Dr Nott, Mr Hurley, and Mr Dorman favored Mr Gardiner while the rest backed Mr Killam and Gardiner. The Labour ticket would have yielded different preferences, analysts say, but the Bills advance was tied to ballot majorities and not solely the Labour card.
