LabelParty voted for constituency candidate Q151
Question text In the election people used a new way of voting to elect the Welsh National Assembly. There were two ballot papers. The first, which was purple, was for an individual Member for the Welsh National Assembly - or MWA - for your constituency. The second, which was peach, was for a party list for your region. Thinking of your 'first' vote for an individual MWA for your constituency, which party's candidate did you vote for?
