Deputy Al Brouard, who reportedly camped outside the Royal Court building from 07:00 yesterday morning, was the first to register. He was one of 19 current Deputies who have already confirmed they will seek re-election.
Some new candidates have also formally announced their plans to run for the office of States Deputy after handing in their forms, whether that be independently or as part of one of the registered parties.
Tomorrow I register as a candidate in our 2020 Election. I’d like to thank my proposer and seconder, both for their nominations and for their Testimonials on my website, https://t.co/T1vg2YeaFk

While some incumbent States Members have also been up to the court to register for re-election.

Among them was Mother of the House, Deputy Mary Lowe.
I lodged my General Election nomination form this morning and now look forward to taking part in my second Island Wide Election, the first being 1997 as a Conseiller.
