Election Day

Today marks the last day of the election campaign - the day when voters have a last chance to change the way the country is run.
Please make sure you use that vote. I hope you'll use it to vote for your Liberal Democrat candidate (Jacquie Bell in Stockton South or Philip Latham in Stockton North), but whoever you decide to support please use it.
Remember that people have died in this country in the past to make sure that ordinary men and women have the vote. We owe it to their memory and to our children and grandchildren to make sure that democracy thrives here.
Remember that if you haven't yet posted your postal vote it's too late to rely on the Royal Mail but you can take it in its envelope to any polling station in your constituency and pop it in the ballot box there.
