Interim Report on the Preferendums run at the 5th May, 2005
UK General Election for the Westminster Parliament.
160 POLICIES PLACED IN ORDER OF PREFERENCE

The preferendum was run in 15 constituencies thanks to the Vote For Yourself Rainbow Dream Ticket (VFYRDT) whose candidates (standing in a total of 23 constituencies) combined the preferendum policy voting forms (P- Forms) with their election addresses. Using the free mailing through Royal Mail, over ½ million P-Forms were distributed to every delivery point throughout the preferendum constituencies. Bookshops served these constituencies with supplies of additional P-Forms on request, and display advertisements were run in newspapers covering all preferendum areas announcing where additional forms (for households or delivery points with more than 2 voters) might be obtained.
