Write-ins included votes for "Woofie Bear", Ken Slater, Terry Jeeves and the Yorkshire Ripper.

Note that the elimination appears to have been done incorrectly: "Hold Over Funds" should have been eliminated before Judith Hanna. It would not have made a difference in her elimination, but might have prevented a deadlock with no one getting an absolute majority if Hold Over Funds couldn't be eliminated. As it happened, this was avoided anyway.
