Elections / Forthcoming Elections

Tell ALDC if you have a By-Election.

ALDC monitors and records the results of council by-elections on behalf of the Liberal Democrat Party. We have a weekly column in Liberal Democrat News where we comment on the previous week's by-election results and list by-election results and forthcoming by-elections. We also post these on our web site www.aldc.org and on Cix Conferences.

In order to make this service as effective as possible, ALDC needs to be informed about by-elections as early as possible.

If a by-election is happening in your area, please follow this link:
- report a by-election

Please remember we publicise ONLY those by-elections with details of a contact for helpers.

Sometimes there is not space in Liberal Democrat News for a full list of forthcoming by-elections but there is always a full list on our web site.

We would also be pleased to receive the "inside knowledge" on why we performed well or badly in particular by-elections, to assist with writing the commentary.

Want to help in a by-election near you? Follow this link:
