No additional candidates were put forward on the second day of nominations ahead of Guernsey’s by-election in April.
That means so far there are three confirmed candidates for the by-election next month.
They are Nikki Symons, Carl Meerveld, and Ross Le Brun, who were all nominated on the first day that forms were received.
Any other candidates who wish to join them on the ballot sheet must be nominated by 16:30 on Wednesday afternoon.
Voters will go to the polls to elect one of those nominated on 29 April.
The list of candidates so far:
The by-election next month will be the first under Guernsey’s fully island wide electoral system, which was launched in 2020.
That first election saw 119 candidates nominated in total, with one withdrawing on medical grounds before the election. In 2025, 82 candidates were nominated for the second fully-island wide poll.
38 deputies were chosen at each of those elections.
The States of Deliberation has been operating with just 37 deputies – and the two Alderney representatives – since last summer though.
The upcoming by-election was sparked by Jonathan Le Tocq’s conviction and subsequent imprisonment.
His seat has been vacant since he was first arrested last July.
He resigned from the States in December after pleading guilty to a number of crimes.
