    Would have been too late to remove him from the ballots. A few have been suspended by their parties in the last few weeks, never worked out if the votes cast for them still count, I would imagine so as the suspension is from the party not the election.

    Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

    You vote for a person not a party (despite popular belief). The candidate's standing in the party is a total irrelevance. Indeed he/she doesn't even have to declare a party at all. You can only be removed from a ballot if found guilty of breaches of statutes relating to elections and campaign conduct. There are certain circumstances in which the result of an election can be annulled at a later date but again party membership or standing would not be a cause for such action to be invoked.

        Because it would get you flagged as abusive?

        Or maybe the suspension would get permanent if the word gets spread?

                  Just found this[^] whilst looking to see where he was standing. If he's suspended does that mean he can't be voted for? So much for staying off Codeproject so not to post something to ruin your chances :laugh: Nagy I know you still speak with him?

                  Yes, I am standing. Yes, I am still a member of the conservative party. No, I haven't been suspended. (Press got it wrong (again)). And it wasn't me who posted it. Just to clear up any confusion.

                                        Well, if you're elected, your first duty will be to fix the CP CCC! Get your priorities right, Man! A couple of thousand Lutonians (incl. pikies) v. eleven million CP members? Even an accountant should be able to handle the Maths of that one!

                                        I'm thinking these elections are his first step to CCC world domination! :)

                                          ??? A politician has said something, and you're daft enough to believe it? I think that anyone who believes even one statement that comes out of a politician's (particularly the tory variety) mouth should be banned from voting.
