General Election 2024: Full list of candidates for North East Somerset and Hanham

There are eight different candidates after your vote in North East Somerset and Hanham in the general election on July 4 — in what is likely to be one of the election’s most watched contests.

Conservative Jacob Rees-Mogg is one of the biggest names in national politics, but two big names in local politics are after his seat. Dan Norris, who Mr Rees-Mogg unseated in 2010 and is now the West of England Metro Mayor, is hoping to win the seat back for Labour. Meanwhile Dine Romero, the former leader of Bath and North East Somerset Council, is the Liberal Democrat challenger.

Meanwhile the Greens, Reform, the Monster Raving Loony Party, and independent candidate Nicholas Hales are also standing in the seat.

This is the first general election where voters will need to take an accepted form of photo ID with them to vote at a polling station. It is also the first election with new constituency boundaries, which has seen the eastern half of the former North East Somerset constituency depart to join Frome and East Somerset, and Hanham join the remainder of North East Somerset to create this seat.

If you are not yet registered to vote, you need to register to vote by June 18 here. You can sign up for a postal vote until 5pm on June 19 here or sign up for a proxy vote until 5pm on June 26 here.

There are 20 accepted forms of photo ID which you can show at a polling station when you vote. You can check that your ID is on the list, and you have until 5pm on June 26 to sign up for a Voter Authority Certificate if it is not, here.
