Green Party leader Natalie Bennett said:  “I would like to thank all those who worked tirelessly on the campaign with huge amounts of energy and commitment.

Cllr. Abbott had secured second place in 2009. Labour came 4th and the Lib Dem vote collapsed.    The Greens targeted the 2 divisions to concentrate their resources whilst also standing in 88% of seats across the county.   Natalie Bennett, Green Party Leader, visited both Witham and Rochford during the election campaign.
