Find a candidate

[jenstar]

Is there somewhere online with a list of general election candidates (for this election) which is searchable by NAME? The BBC list is only searchable by place, and appears to be incomplete anyway.

Nominations closed at 4pm on Tuesday but most returning officers are not publishing the list of candidates until Wednesday morning.  I think that you can search by name on

www.makemyvotecount.org

Whoops - I meant

www.makemyvotecount.org.uk

The other websites with lists of candidates (that I know of) are

www.politics.co.uk

www.bbc.co.uk/news
(click on "Election 2005" and then "seat by seat")

Although nominations closed yesterday, all three of them are still only provisional because it will obviously take a few hours or a day or two for all the latest candidates to be entered.
