Cornwall Council doesn’t publish how individual councillors vote. Its minutes record each decision, not who voted which way.
This councillor is highly vulnerable, having won by just 13 votes (0.72%) in a six-candidate field, the smallest winning margin in the division's recent history. The majority narrowed by 24.4 percentage points from the previous election, meaning a swing of only 0.36% would unseat them. Turnout was below 42%, and with five opponents drawing votes away, any slight shift in vote distribution could easily flip the seat.
