Wedding ring found in ballot box as voter endures general election nightmare

An unlucky voter will have some explaining to do to their partner - after losing their wedding ring in a ballot box.

Trafford Council, in Greater Manchester, is hoping to reunite the owner with the jewellery, which was uncovered during the count this evening.

It was found in a box collected from Cloverlea Primary School, the authority said.

The authority has not given any detail about the ring.

Posting on Twitter , Trafford Council wrote: "We've found a wedding ring in one of our ballot boxes! It was found in the Cloverlea Primary School ballot box, Hale Barns.

"If it's yours please call Access Trafford on 0161 912 2000 so we can reunite you with it!"
