Voters were able to make more than one vote. In 2006, it was discovered that Eastbury ward was inaccurate due to a clerical error. After seeking legal advice, it was decided that as the result had been declared it must stand until a petition is made to the High Court by the affected candidate. 2006: It was not possible for Hackney to provide figures for postal voters which included rejected ballot papers, all the rejected ballot papers are included with the polling station figures. 2006: Westminster would not provide figures for postal voters.
