[BBC Points West @bbcpointswest]

Will Bath get a mayor? The mayoral referendum is vote under way https://t.co/iVqVF9XUFw

[Mayor for BANES @MayorForBanes]

No, we assumed it would be in May and assumed there was some discretion. @bradley_steve @richardwyatt @landatthebottom @DominicTristram

[Mayor for BANES @MayorForBanes]

@zippitib @danlufan @DominicTristram @bradley_steve @richardwyatt I disagree with your choices but am very glad you have voted

[Mayor for BANES @MayorForBanes]

Let's hope so: please vote #choosechange https://t.co/2o0wMxXTXe

[Steve Bradley 🇺🇦 @bradley_steve]

@DominicTristram @richardwyatt @MayorForBanes 2 polling stations on my road, & both hav looked dead anytime I've gone past today. Late rush?

[Mayor for BANES @MayorForBanes]

For the record we had asked for it to be combined with Pcc in May https://t.co/lNXIjPCQuq

[Steve Bradley 🇺🇦 @bradley_steve]

@richardwyatt @landatthebottom @DominicTristram Yes. @MayorForBanes could possibly submittd later to save £, but unsure if signatures expire

[Mayor for BANES @MayorForBanes]

Jo fatter is running that one for whole region: it was said that she couldn't do both as Pcc much bigger https://t.co/wtlW3yQNda

[Bath Newseum @richardwyatt]

@bradley_steve @landatthebottom @DominicTristram @MayorForBanes It's May and Mayor Referendum could have been held same day to save money?

[Mayor for BANES @MayorForBanes]

The current council will set the wage of a mayor. https://t.co/9JONpy7lTl

@KirstenTElliott @votedave @MayorForBanes

Elected Mayors get £65K plus, bag carriers and hangers on unlimited. Do the sums!
