Cornwall Council doesn’t publish how individual councillors vote. Its minutes record each decision, not who voted which way.
The councillor's majority fell substantially from 44.8% in the previous election to 7.3% in 2025, a swing of 37.5 percentage points. While turnout dropped slightly to 36.5%, the number of candidates remained at four, and the councillor now holds a slim 138-vote margin.
