By-elections
Good evening, I have just removed the blank Labour and Conservative lines from the by-election box on Stoke-on-Trent Central (UK Parliament constituency).

We typically only add confirmed parties/candidates to election boxes. Including blank lines for selected parties suggests they are the only parties still to select candidates, whereas in reality many other parties could be selecting that we don't know about. There is also a dedicated page for the by-election: Stoke-on-Trent Central by-election, 2017 where details of selection processes can be added if you have that information. The candidate list will also need to be updated there as more candidates are selected.
