This project surveyed political candidates selected ahead of the 2015 general election. Key findings were published in an article in Parliamentary Affairs. It was led at UCL by Professor Jennifer Hudson.

The project fed into The Representative Audit of Britain, which brought research on parliamentary candidates together under one umbrella.
