Commission finds Ramsey and Peel have too many voters per MHK

Are Peel and Ramsey too big? A body looking into the Island's elections thinks so.

The electoral commission has spent more than a year considering how people on the Island vote, and it says Ramsey and Glenfaba & Peel have too many voters per MHK.

Ramsey has 19 per cent and Peel has 18 per cent more voters than average, which the commission says dilutes the vale of votes cast there.

It's recommending a shift in boundaries to correct the imbalance.
