Turnout figures at elections have been declining for some years

It's a good job Brenda from Bristol hasn't decided to up sticks and come to Nottinghamshire. The woman who went viral at the announcement of the 2017 general election by declaring "not another one" would surely struggle in our county, as its voters face the possibility of trekking to the ballot box three times next year.

Firstly, there is the prospect of the election for Nottinghamshire Police and Crime Commissioner and for the first-ever East Midlands Mayor taking place on the same day in May. On top of that, the next general election is expected to be held next year, with current expectations being that it will fall in the autumn.

Unlike the new East Midlands Mayor role, people in Nottingham had a referendum in 2012 to decide if they wanted an elected mayor for the city in the first place. The result was a resounding no, but more worrying for some of those standing next May is that turnout in that referendum was just 23.9 percent - the lowest of all the cities voting that day.
