UK Election draws 3,500 candidates
"Labour and the Tories are standing in 627 mainland seats and the Lib Dems in 626 constituencies..."
Why do Brits STAND for office while Americans RUN for office? How are you going to catch anybody if you STAND?
Anyway the filing deadline is past. No petitions: you pay a £500 deposit and lose it if you poll under 5%. Most seats have four to six candidates, with more in Scotland and Wales due to the regional parties.
