Guernsey votes for change

ISLANDERS voted 22 new faces into the States yesterday and in the process ousted 12 sitting deputies. Deputy chief minister and Public Services minister Bernard Flouquet, who polled just 778 votes in losing his seat in the Castel, was the highest profile casualty in a night that saw the highest turnaround yet under the system of government introduced in 2004. Turnouts were up on 2008 – with an average of 70.8% across the districts.
