Elected Prospective Parliamentary Candidate

Sarah Wollaston

The Totnes Conservative Party parliamentary primary of 2009 was the 1st open primary election used to select the Conservative Prospective Parliamentary Candidate for the constituency of Totnes. The election was held on Tuesday 4 August 2009 under the first-past-the-post system. The primary was triggered by Anthony Steen's announcement that he would not stand at the next election.[1] This came just days after details of Steen's expenses claims were published in The Daily Telegraph.
