The funny Conservative has been campaigning hard.
The Labour and Liberal Democrat candidates appear to have forgotten Rutland not even a leaflet.
I googled both of them and found they are both Leicestershire Councillors so no surprise it appears they forgot Rutland.

Sir Clive Loader, Police and Crime Commissioner, Responds To Question about Public Trust in Police, Police Not Perfect
Thursday, January 31, 2013
Sir Clive Loader, Police and Crime Commissioner, Leicester County Council, Dispute
It is good to read Sir Clive is keeping his election promises.
I am still disappointed this rather level headed intelligent man decided to take up Tory Membership weeks before the election.
It is pleasing to read he is accounting for public money and requesting others such as Leicester County Council are also accountable.
Not so pleased about the dirty tricks the Tories dish out in this area, what is wrong with them?
Leicester City Council is starting to smell rather like the Tories at Rutland County Council.
The county council has released correspondence to the Mercury – in the form of e-mails and text messages – between Sir Clive and the authority, which is run by fellow Conservatives.
In one exchange, Sir Clive said he could no longer work with the chief executive of the county council – John Sinnott – who had written a letter to him outlining the council’s and councillors’ concerns.

Sir Clive came to Oakham with his wife, his normal trip to Tesco took a little longer than usual
keeping to his word that he will listen to the public he did just that today here in Oakham.
Before taking this photograph I congratulated and he accepted if I meant it.
If I did not mean it I would not have said so. As I told him at the public hustings he would
have got my vote if he had not joined the local Tories a few weeks before standing.
I also met his good wife who said she is not political, I am sure it won't be long before she is
off on a Tory Ladies Charity Curry Night...
Sir Clive was persuaded to buy some number plate security screws from
PCSO Jay Cooper who was selling security gear in Gaol Street.
Sir Clive paid the required £1.00
PCSO Jay Cooper would like all to know if you missed his stall in
Gaol Street today you can buy the products from Oakham Police
Station from Jon Gower at the front desk.
The lamp timers are good value at £1.00
