Wouldn't this be more accurately placed at Social and Liberal Democrats leadership election, 1988 since that was the party's title at the time? "Liberal Democrats" wasn't adopted until 1989. Timrollpickering 12:21, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
- Good thinking. It could even be Democrats leadership election, 1988 since this was the (never caught on) short title for the party at the time. David | Talk 12:22, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

- I recall "the Democrats" was used in some of the few years old A-Level politics textbooks floating around when my sister starter her A-Level (1993), albeit only briefly indicating a flawed attempt to be up to date when going to press... However wasn't the "SaLaD" form the official version still used?

- There's not been any further comment on this so if no-one has any objections I propose to move it to Social and Liberal Democrats leadership election, 1988 in three days' time. Timrollpickering 22:35, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Alternative Vote
Should we remove the reference to Alternative Vote? Unless voters were actually asked to rank the two candidates, the process reduced to FPTP. --Whouk (talk) 15:37, 22 January 2006 (UTC)
