| 1997: | The election was declared void after a petition was lodged by the defeated Conservative candidate. On 6th October 1997 the High Court of Justice, sitting as the Election Court, found that 54 or 55 ballot papers were issued to voters without the official mark and the result was affected by that, such that the election was not conducted substantially according to law. | ||||||||
| Browne opposed a federal Europe. | |||||||||
| 1997- 1997 (20/11): | Huggett was seeking election in order to divide the Liberal Democrat vote as part of a family feud. He chose a title as an attempt to deceive voters intending to vote Liberal Democrat. In the general election his ballot paper description was 'Liberal Democrat Top Choice for Parliament'; in the byelection it was 'Literal Democrat Mark here to Win'. | ||||||||
| 1997 (20/11): | Page sought election as a 'Referendum-UK Independence' candidate but this was merely a title and he was solely the candidate of the UK Independence Party. | ||||||||
| Everest sought election as a 'Euro-Conservative' candidate. | |||||||||
