Be careful what you print

For those that don't know, I'm running for local government as the Liberal Democrat candidate for King's Hedges City Councillor in Cambridge.
Part of this involves seeing what the other parties do. I had a leaflet come through the door for the potential Labour candidate, Gerri Bird. It contained the usual bumpf, and a suggestion at the end; "google for gerri bird cambridge".
This could present a problem for Gerri. You're not asking someone to go to a site, where the information you have is constant and of a known quality. In this case, Gerri not replying to a survey from the local cycling organisation is the top hit on Google. As these leaflets are already out in the wild, the instructions can't be changed.

Something to be careful of.
