Conservatives keep Croydon Sutton GLA seat
Conservative councillor Steve O’Connell has been re-elected to represent Croydon and Sutton at the London Assembly after winning 60,152 votes.
He fended off competition from Labour candidate Louisa Woodley who finished second with 50,734 votes and Lib Dem candidate Abigail Lock trailing with 21,889 votes in third.
Despite a majority of over 40,000 votes in 2008, Coun O’Connell had his majority slashed to 9,418.
Fresh Choice For London’s Winston Truman Mckenzie finished fourth with 10,757 votes while the Greens candidate Gordon Halliday Ross finished narrowly fifth with 10,287 votes.
