The Kirklees May Elections are over , the votes for each of the wards in the Parliamentary Constituencies have been aggregated and in Huddersfield the Green Party got second place across the 5 wards that make up the Constituency. Labour is on 45% of the vote. Greens on 18.8%, Conservatives on 18.5%, Lib Dems on 11.1% and UKIP on 5.5%. Of course these are Local Elections not a General Election and the Newsome result for the Green Party at 52% was the 2nd highest winning result of any Party in the Huddersfield Constituency. We beat the Lib Dems into 4th place in Ashbrow and Greenhead with it has to be said very little in terms of campaigning by the Green Party at all outside the Newsome Ward.
