I thought it would make a change to have a non-US election poll. Tongue

Anyhoo, I'd vote Fox on the first ballot.

Edit: I didn't make the poll secret. Oh well....

Davis seems to be the only libertarian like candidate, though I like Cameron a good deal. I voted Davis.

I tried to approach this from the angle of what I think would have been best for the party, rather than my personal views (not being a conservative). I voted Clarke, but I don't think Cameron was a bad choice, and he would have gotten my vote in subsequent rounds.

My personal views tell me to support Clarke, who is one of the few Tories I do like.

Politically, I probably would've felt that Cameron would've been the most likely to win the next election.
