Since 2009, the Conservative Party in the United Kingdom has experimented with the use of open primaries to select some parliamentary candidates.[1] Three primaries were held ahead of the 2010 general election in Oxford West & Abingdon, Totnes and Gosport. More than a dozen primaries were held ahead of the 2015 general election. For the 2010 general electionTotnes{{Main article|Totnes Conservative primary, 2009}}Totnes was the first constituency to use an open primary to select the Conservative Prospective Parliamentary Candidate. The election was held in August 2009 and saw a turnout of approximately 25%. Due to the success of this primary election, David Cameron announced that the system would be applied to other constituencies in future.[2] Dr Sarah Wollaston, a general practitioner, was selected with 48% of the vote.[3] Wollaston went on to be elected MP for Totnes at the 2010 general election. Gosport{{Main article|Gosport Conservative primary, 2009}}Gosport held an open primary to select a candidate to succeed Peter Viggers upon his retirement from Westminster.[4][5] The election was held in December 2009. Caroline Dinenage, a local business owner and daughter of Fred Dinenage, was selected with 38% of the vote. Dinenage was elected MP for Gosport at the 2010 general election, with an increased majority. Clacton by-election, 2014{{main article|Clacton by-election, 2014}}The 2014 Clacton by-election, caused by the defection from the Conservatives of Douglas Carswell, a prominent advocate of open primaries, selected actor Giles Watling over Colchester councillor Sue Lissimore on 11 September.[6][7] Rochester and Strood by-election, 2014{{main article|Rochester and Strood by-election, 2014}}The candidate for the 2014 Rochester and Strood by-election, caused by the defection from the Conservative Party of Mark Reckless to the UK Independence Party (UKIP), was chosen by a postal open primary.[8] Kelly Tolhurst, a local councillor, narrowly won over fellow councillor Anna Firth. Tolhurst lost the by-election to Reckless, but later won the seat at the following year's general election. For the 2015 general election{{Expand list|date=November 2013}}
