Jersey Elections 2011

Grinning faces are peering down at you as you nip around the parish. Banners bearing beaming mugshots greet you as you negotiate the roundabout.

Election-time is upon us.

It might be those very posters that have brought you here to find out more about the soul behind the smile who wants a seat in our States. Browse away…

Basically we’ve invited all 82 candidates to tell us – in no more than 200 words – why they deserve your vote on 19th October.  Those who took up our invitation to introduce themselves to you, the Channel 103 listener, are featured amongst these pages.

Of course, there are other ways of getting to know them. The hustings. They’re official meetings that provide a chance to question the candidates’ views, ideas and policies. Some will be better-attended, more entertaining and helpful to the electorate than others. To see when the hustings are in your area click here

Welcome… come on in!

You’re here because you’ve heard that we’re on the brink of an important election, right? 

Maybe you’re unhappy about the taxes on your groceries, struggling to afford a decent place to live, fed up with blots on the landscape or worried about what kind of place your children might grow up in.

Elections can be baffling. But Channel 103 is here to guide you through the next six weeks. Have a look around this special website and you’ll find details of all the candidates, and how to vote.
