Candidates edit

Out of curiosity, I put together a list of candidates. There's currently 20 names, plus two I'm not sure of - Rawson in Reigate and Carnegie in Winchester had both been National MPs, but I don't know if they stood again in 1918 and were defeated, if they had switched back to Conservative (ditto), or if they simply stood down.

The article states there were 23 candidates, so we may also be missing one. Anyone able to confirm where this might be? Andrew Gray (talk) 14:26, 2 February 2014 (UTC)Reply

Rawson died before the election and his successor was unopposed, so it seems no National candidate there. Andrew Gray (talk) 14:29, 2 February 2014 (UTC)Reply
