Plaid Cymru vote up by 50% in Clwyd West

Commenting on last night’s election result in Clwyd West, Plaid Cymru candidate Llyr Huws Gruffydd said:

“We increased Plaid’s vote by over 50% in Clwyd West and secured one of the biggest swings to Plaid in the whole of the country.

“Our campaign has reinvigorated the party locally with new members, activists and supporters coming forward to help with our work and we are grateful to them and to the thousands of voters who have supported us.

“This result gives us a strong platform upon which to build for next year’s Assembly election where Plaid was just 1800 votes behind last time.”
