If you haven’t yet voted in the leadership contest, you had better get your skates on as the ballot closes at 1pm today.

If you are still trying to make up your mind which of our excellent candidates to vote for, our Liberal Democrat Leadership election tag, with our Ed’s Day and Jo’s Day series and other things might help.

Their BBC2 hustings from Friday night is here. 

This is the time for @LibDems to be that positive alternative that I believe millions of people in our country are crying out for. That's why I want to lead the party, and I hope you'll vote for me before 1pm today! #JoinJo https://t.co/Q8Uv31LIZr

As only @LibDem MP to get elected in a non target seat I know what it takes to win

I'd lead #LibDems to win at every level, from Tories & Labour- by building strong teams and a clear identity as THE party of environment & education

If you can’t find your ballot paper, you need to email [email protected] quickly for a replacement – but act NOW.

If you were sent an online ballot, as most people were, you can find it in your inbox by searching for Lib Dem Elections.

Oh, and don’t believe anything you have read in the media about the election this weekend. It’s rubbish, as our head of membership , Greg Foster, made clear on Twitter:

Now, it’s possible that they’re referring to processing postal votes, but given they’d be going off a random sample of a couple of dozen ballots from the 3-4% of electors expected to vote by post, they’d know it was very unlikely to be representative.

Do not miss the chance to have your say on the future direction of our party.  Just four and a half hours to go…

We won’t have too long to wait for the result. It will be announced at 4pm this afternoon and there will be a big rally in London this evening.
