In the third vote, Rory Stewart was eliminated. In the fourth Sajid Javid bit the dust. Who remains? The BBC reports Boris Johnson, Michael Gove, and Jeremy Hunt remain in the candidate pool.
Johnson is so far in the lead that, for instance, even if all of Hunt’s and Javid’s votes went to Gove, Johnson would still be ahead, if not by much.
We should know the names of the two finalists by 5 p.m London time today, according to the BBC. When the party members’ votes are later counted, everyone will be very surprised if the new PM is not Boris Johnson.
