Bradbury enrolled twice

Whale Oil has blogged:

Sometime last year, a little birdy told me that Martyn Bradbury of The Daily Blog, funded by unions and the MANA Party, as well as being paid to be Kim Dotcom’s Internet party strategist, was on the electoral roll twice.

Mistakes happen.  So I decided to wait.   Because closer to the election, you get sent the nice enrollment pack by the Electoral Commission to confirm your details.

After this phase, I waited for the new rolls to come out.  And what would you know?  Martyn didn’t take the opportunity to correct the fact he is on the roll as two different people.  (Unless he has a twin brother called Martin we have never seen or hear of living with him at the exact same address?)

The original double enrolment may just be a mistake, but as every person on the roll knows, you get sent a letter from the Electoral Commission asking you to check your details. Bradbury would have received two letters (probably on the same day), yet has done nothing as he is still on there twice.

Also people may note that despite it being public info, Cameron has redacted Bradbury’s address.

I’m sure Martyn/Martin will explain it all away as a mistake, but the question remains – why didn’t he correct it when he got two letters from the Electoral Commission?
