If Plaid need to be seen to be making progress in Caerphilly then this is one of the wards they need to capture . They have in the past held one of the seats , But were pushed into third place by Ukip on a healthy ( for byelections) 31.59 % turnout.
Caerphilly os probably one of the councils Plaid will be seeking to make big gains in next years Council elections it lookd like it will be a hard slog,

where has donald cullen gone? maybe it was a personal vote
Are you surprised, where are the Plaid Cymru candidates and campaigners in south east Wales?
Labour are out in force and UKIP will win seats and votes because they are out campaigning in places like Merthyr Tydfil, Ebbw Vale, Torfaen. I’ve yet to see any PC or Lib Dems candidates or campaign teams in any of these towns or election leaflets through the doors.
What’s wrong with Plaid Cymru, why don’t they learn, it was the same during the General Election, voters crying out for alteratives and not once being canvassed for their votes.
