From the Bury Times:
"The Conservatives need a swing of around three per cent to take the seat from Labour's David Chaytor. He has held the seat since 1997, with a majority at last year's General Election of 2,926 votes.
There are three candidates for the selection.
Simon Baynes (46), managing director of a UK investment bank. He lives in Powys and was Conservative candidate for Montgomeryshire in 2005.
David Nuttall (44), a solicitor and former councillor. He lives in Bury and contested the Bury North constituency last year.
Alex Williams (31), a chartered accountant who lives in Hale, Cheshire. He is a councillor in Trafford and was the Parliamentary candidate for Bury South in 2005."
The selection is on November 11th at Holy Cross College, starting at 1.30pm. If you are a local you can apply to attend via the website or email.
Cllr Michelle Wiseman was selected for Bury South in July.
Update: You can now read about the candidates on the Bury Conservatives website
