There was an additional application from Stephen Cole, who provided eight nominators, but of these three were invalid email addresses and two have not responded, so he did not reach the required four nominators. I have not listed the applicants' Personal Statements in these results as these are effectively election manifestoes, and there is to be no election. ======================================================================== This process was conducted by a neutral third party member of UKVoting.
