The Jersey general election, 2008 was a series of elections that were taking place in two stages in October and November 2008 in Jersey. Constable electionsFor the first time since 1948 the elections of constables for the twelve parishes of Jersey have been synchronised so that polling, where necessary, will take place on the same day as the senatorial election on 15 October 2008, in accordance with the Connétables (Jersey) Law 2008 (registered 28 March 2008). At Assemblies of Electors held in nine parishes on 17 September 2008, constables in five parishes were returned unopposed: St Brelade, St Martin, St Ouen, Trinity and St Saviour.[1] The constables of the other parishes declined to stand down to recontest their seats, preferring to serve out their full term so that the provisions of the law will apply to the next mandate from 2011.[2] St ClementSitting Constable Derek Gray did not seek re-election. Senator Leonard Norman beat Deputy Gerard Baudains and Centenier Edgar Wallis. {{Election box begin no change | title=St Clement constable election, 2008[3][4]}}{{Election box winning candidate with party link no change| |party = Independent (politician) |candidate = Leonard Norman |votes = 1,593 |percentage = 60.92 }}{{Election box candidate with party link no change| |party = Independent (politician) |candidate = Gerard Baudains |votes = 740 |percentage = 28.30 }}{{Election box candidate with party link no change| |party = Independent (politician) |candidate = Edgar Wallis |votes = 254 |percentage = 9.71 }}{{Election box invalid no change| |votes = 28 |percentage = 1.07 }}{{Election box total no change| |votes = 2,615 |percentage = 100.00 }}{{Election box turnout no change| |percentage = 48.26 }}{{Election box end}} St HelierFollowing his 2008 re-election, Simon Crowcroft declared that he would not stand down to fight a second election in ten months, despite speculation that he would fight a senatorial campaign with a view to becoming Chief Minister.[5] St LawrenceDeputy Deidre Mezbourian beat Chef de Police Tim Tindall. {{Election box begin no change | title=St Lawrence constable election, 2008[3][4]}}{{Election box winning candidate with party link no change| |party = Independent (politician) |candidate = Deidre Mezbourain |votes = 1,300 |percentage = 76.61 }}{{Election box candidate with party link no change| |party = Independent (politician) |candidate = Tim Tindall |votes = 382 |percentage = 22.51 }}{{Election box invalid no change| |votes = 15 |percentage = 0.88 }}{{Election box total no change| |votes = 1,697 |percentage = 100.00 }}{{Election box turnout no change| |percentage = 49.87 }}{{Election box end}} St MarySitting Constable Ken Le Brun is standing down.[6] Deputy Juliette Gallichan beat former Chef de Police Terry Renouf. {{Election box begin no change | title=St Mary constable election, 2008[3][4]}}{{Election box winning candidate with party link no change| |party = Independent (politician) |candidate = Juliette Gallichan |votes = 404 |percentage = 66.45 }}{{Election box candidate with party link no change| |party = Independent (politician) |candidate = Terry Renouf |votes = 204 |percentage = 33.55 }}{{Election box invalid no change| |votes = 0 |percentage = 0.00 }}{{Election box total no change| |votes = 608 |percentage = 100.00 }}{{Election box turnout no change| |percentage = 54.63 }}{{Election box end}} St PeterProcureur du Bien Public John Refault beat Deputy Collin Egré. {{Election box begin no change | title=St Peter constable election, 2008[3][4]}}{{Election box winning candidate with party link no change| |party = Independent (politician) |candidate = John Refault |votes = 975 |percentage = 57.35 }}{{Election box candidate with party link no change| |party = Independent (politician) |candidate = Collin Egré |votes = 725 |percentage = 42.65 }}{{Election box invalid no change| |votes = 0 |percentage = 0.00 }}{{Election box total no change| |votes = 1,700 |percentage = 100.00 }}{{Election box turnout no change| |percentage = 52.39 }}{{Election box end}} Senatorial electionThe senatorial election took place on 15 October 2008.
