Lib Dem Victory in Eastfield By-election

September 27, 2010 9:10 AM

Local Liberal Democrats are celebrating a council by-election victory in Scarborough's Eastfield Ward. The seat was held by the Lib Dems after the sad death of Councillor Brian O'Flynn necessitated an election. Local candidate Johan Zegstroo dedicated his win to Brian, a longstanding friend.

The election was closely fought, with a very poor turnout. The Liberal Democrats won on 182 votes with Labour coming second on 159, the Independents on 110, Conservatives on 100, BNP on 27, and the Green party on a mere 13 votes.

Eastfield is a three member ward and Councillor Zegstroo will be working alongside fellow Lib Dem Eastfield councillors Brian Simpson and Geoff Evans.
