David Ashford says a review of the Manx voting system is needed
A debate is needed about the electoral registration system - that's the view of Douglas Councillor David Ashford.
He was speaking after contesting the Douglas North by-election where he failed by 50 votes to become the new MHK for the constituency.
More than 12,000 people were taken off the voters' list Island-wide and around 800 in Douglas North alone.
And Mr Ashford says this is something that needs to be examined:
Steam Packet urged to be more 'transparent' over Manxman issues
Nature of work keeping boat in dry dock goes unexplained
Government needs to 'break the cycle' of child poverty on Island
Committee report accepted by Tynwald in court's final sitting
Proportion on waiting lists likely higher than England
Manx Care aiming for 95% of patients to be seen within a year
Sixth candidate declares for Glenfaba and Peel
Peel Commissioner and former MHK to contest election
