Guidance for Candidates and Agents at Greater London Authority elections

Standing for election in more than one contest at the GLA election

There is no restriction, other than that set out in 'Can I stand for election in more than one London Assembly constituency?', on standing in more than one contest at the GLA election.  

However, if a candidate who stands for election in both the Mayor of London election and the London Assembly Member constituency election and is successful in both, they will be returned as the Mayor of London but not as a Constituency Assembly Member.

If a candidate is returned either as the London Mayor or as an Assembly Constituency Member, they can not also be returned as a London-wide Assembly Member.
