Quick question - in 2007 there is a Robert McCartney of the UKUP listed as a candidate for Fermanagh & South Tyrone. This currently links to Robert McCartney (Northern Irish politician) who was MP for North Down 1995-2001 and MLA for North Down 1998-2007. This Robert McCartney contested his North Down seat in '07 and was defeated. Did he really contest two different constituencies in 2007 or are they different people? His biog makes no reference to him standing in F&ST. Frinton100 (talk) 18:28, 17 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Frinton100: Yes, it was him. He stood in multiple constituencies. See McCartney multiple seat bid fails. Number 57 10:25, 18 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Number 57: Thank you for that - I have updated his biog accordingly. Frinton100 (talk) 19:53, 23 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
