Voters Head to the Polls in East Suffolk Tomorrow

    The general election campaign is in its final hours. When voters head to the polls tomorrow some will be casting those votes in a different parliamentary constituency due to boundary changes.

    Beccles and Lowestoft are now grouped in the geographically smaller district of Lowestoft which was carved from Waveney. Bungay is in the newly created Waveney Valley as is Halesworth which had been in Suffolk Coastal.

    Several Polls suggest there could be a Labour win in both Lowestoft and Suffolk Coastal with a tight race between the Conservatives and The Green Party in Waveney Valley. A labour win in Suffolk Coastal would be the first time since 1951 that a candidate other than a Conservative has been elected to that seat.

    The candidates for each seat in alphabetical order by surname:

    • Peter Aldous (Conservative)
