  • The 2021 Wiltshire Police and Crime Commissioner by-election was a by-election for the position of police and crime commissioner in the Wiltshire Police area of the United Kingdom, held on 19 August 2021. It was triggered after Jonathon Seed, the successful candidate in the 2021 Wiltshire police and crime commissioner election (held in May 2021, postponed from May 2020), did not deliver his acceptance of office by 7 July. This followed Seed announcing his withdrawal from the election on 9 May, in the interval between the vote and the count, after ITV News discovered that Seed had been convicted in 1993 of a 1992 drink driving offence. It was later discovered by ITV News that Seed had a second offence of failure to stop. These matters disqualified Seed from the role of Police and Crime Commissioner, as guidance published by the Electoral Commission says PCC candidates cannot seek election if they have been convicted of an offence punishable with a prison sentence, including spent convictions and those where a prison sentence was not given. The by-election had to be held with 35 working days of the vacancy by virtue of Section 51 of the Police Reform and Social Responsibility Act 2011, thus the date was set for 19 August. (en)
