Who gets London's top job? How to vote in the Mayoral
election
The ballot paper for the election of the Mayor is pink.
You have two votes in the Mayoral election - a
first and second choice.
Vote for your first choice candidate by
marking a cross (X) in column one.
Vote for your second choice candidate by
marking a cross (X) in column two.
If you only mark a first choice, your vote
will be counted - you do not have to cast your second choice vote.
But making a second choice cannot reduce the chance
of your first choice candidate being successful.
If you only mark a second choice vote and not
a first choice vote, no vote will be counted.
If you vote for the same candidate for first and second choice,
only one vote will be counted. You cannot improve the chances of
your chosen candidate by giving them your first and second choice
votes.
