The Kennington election of January 1919
In the normal course of events, the voters in the constituency of Kennington would have
gone to the polls on 14 Dec 1918, along with the rest of the country. However, one of the
candidates for Kennington, Colonel Francis Alfred Lucas, died on 11 December.
This situation is covered in the Ballot Act of 1872, which states that "if after the
adjournment of an election by the returning officer for the purpose of taking a poll one of
the candidates nominated shall die before the poll is commenced, the returning officer
shall, upon being satisfied of the fact of such death, countermand notice of the poll, and
all the proceedings with reference to the election shall be commenced afresh in all respects
as if the writ had been received by the returning officer on the day on which proof was
given to him of such death; provided that no fresh nomination shall be necessary in the
case of a candidate who stood nominated at the time of the countermand of the poll."
Accordingly, a fresh election took place in early January 1919. A similar situation occurred
in the general election in 1929 for the seat of Rugby, when the Labour candidate, Henry
Yates, died after he had been nominated as a candidate. On this occasion, while the
rest of the country voted on 30 May 1929, the voters in Rugby went to the poll on 13 June.
