The consultation on Ballymena Electoral Office's future and that of five others here is LOADED against them staying open.
North Antrim MP Ian Paisley made the comment after meeting with Chief Electoral Officer Graham Shields.
Mr Paisley says Ballymena really needs to retain its Electoral Office:
Police investigating Arson Attack in North Belfast
McIlroy honours omission came despite Stormont nomination
Police seize ‘significant quantity’ of drugs following chase
Woman dies in hospital after road crash in Co Fermanagh
