CF 2008 Polling - Pre-Bristol Result
Mike Rouse, who is carrying out polling on the Conservative Future elections [which you can sign up to take part in here], has the results of the first poll, held just prior to the Bristol hustings which are taking place tonight.
And the results for Chairman support is surprisingly one-sided, with one candidate in particular getting a huge level of support. However, whether this is a genuine reflection of his support or not remains to be seen - and it will be interesting to see how the poll results change in the run up to the election.
The level of support for National Chairman is as follows:
- Richardson, Matthew = 18.9%
- Rock, Michael = 73.0%
- Williams, Daryl = 8.1%
The rest of the results can be seen at Mike’s blog and here.
How much will these results effect the candidates, if at all? Maybe there will be some feedback after the Bristol hustings tonight, and maybe some change in the next poll result, which you can sign up to take part in here.
Since so many - like me - are unable to attend the Bristol hustings, maybe someone [like Mike?] Will live-blog the event or provide a summary of what has been said afterwards.
UPDATE: Mike also has an open yet anonymous poll which anyone can fill out without needing to register for the rest of the polling here.
UPDATE 2: Via John Moorcraft, there is a review of the hustings at CF Diary and photos at Nick Webb’s blog. No mention of Mike’s poll, though…

Thanks for the write-up, TD. I wasn’t at the Bristol event and I hear that filming and photography was prohibited. However, I hope that one or two of the people with blogs that did go will report back for us. I would quite like to see how the poll went down in the room, if at all.
