Election History
Drew Creek held the Newquay Trenance seat with 498 votes, beating the Reform UK candidate by a margin of 7 votes (0.45% of the total). A swing of just 0.22% of the vote would be enough to overturn the result, and the seat’s vulnerability score of 93 / 100 classifies it as a toss‑up. The Green Party’s vote share in the division reflects a 5.4‑point decline across Cornwall (from 9.3 % to 3.9 %).
