Labour's David Wilson said:
"This Thursday is election day. It is an election nobody wanted, following the sad death of Labour Councillor, David Owen. As Labour's candidate I would just like to say a big thank you to all the people who I have managed to speak to over recent weeks.
"It has been a great privilege to listen to your views and concerns. I hope I have secured the trust of local residents to be able to represent Reddish North on Stockport Council. If elected, I will always do my best for you and will always try to put Reddish North first.
"Please vote for me, David Wilson. Vote Labour on Thursday"
