Four Island residents have gone on trial accused of election fraud.
A jury’s heard how they tried to help the campaign of one of the candidates - celebrity chef Kevin Woodford - in May 2010 by manipulating voting proceedings.
The allegation came as the prosecution opened its case in the Douglas East by-election trial at Douglas courthouse.
