Cornwall Council doesn’t publish how individual councillors vote. Its minutes record each decision, not who voted which way.
Councillor Paul White holds a relatively comfortable majority of 372 votes (23.05%) in Camborne Trelowarren, with a swing of 11.52% required to unseat them. However, the low turnout of 34.35% and the presence of six candidates in the 2025 election suggest that the result could be more volatile than the majority alone indicates. The margin widened by 1.8 percentage points from the previous election, but the vulnerability score of 52/100 still places the seat in a competitive category.

Fought on the pre-2021 boundaries. The 2017 Camborne Trelowarren division is not the same area as today's ward, and its results are not directly comparable.
