Congratulations to Cllr YiPei Chou Turvey!
After 9 months of campaign across my big ward (400km2) I was elected as Councillor for Banchory and Mid-Deeside in a close race with the Scottish Nationalists and Conservatives. There are 3 seats to represent the ward in Aberdeenshire Council which covers 6000km2 with 70 councillors. The Conservatives tried to take over the council seats by appointing 2 candidates per wards after their success with one candidate in 2017. They were disappointed indeed… their first candidate was elected in Stage 1 with 1,211 votes but their second candidate was eliminated along with Labour and the Scottish Family Party. The Scottish local election use the Single Transferable Vote and I was elected at Stage 4 with 1340 votes, ahead of the SNP candidate who collected 1,264 votes.
