Candidates

With Batten eliminated by the NEC they allowed more time for candidates to come forward. They are now vetting five Richard Braine, Mike Hookem, Freddy Vachha, Ben Walker, Helena Windsor. Public reliable source needed. Weburbia (talk) 05:59, 12 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Helena Windsor

As per this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8RxDZsmYMuo), are we sure Helena is still running? She doesn't appear to be on the ballot paper.

Richard braine is standing, why remove him?

Where does the "turnout" figure for the leadership election come from?

With 5539 votes, a turnout of 19.1% would mean UKIP has exactly 29,000 members, which seems unlikely.

Is this turnout figure a guess?

If not, what's the source? There's nothing in the references.

As far as I know, UKIP isn't publishing membership numbers right now. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23C4:33A:C500:750D:EDDD:5546:C2DF (talk) 15:33, 22 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
