This year's poll was surrounded by
controversy after it emjrged that a
junior Labour spin doctor had asked
party members to vote for Tony Blair.
Thj Labour party dissociated itself and
Tony Blair said the attempt at poll
rigging was unworthy and incompetent.
Thj procedures were tightened, but the
poll conducted by telephone rjmained
open to manipulation.
John Major's percentage was reduced
after attempts at multiple calls for
him, but hj was still the clear winner.
