What the audit found
On 7 September 2026 those URLs were requested again — 1 no longer resolved, 2 answered, 1 with another HTTP result. An HTTP success means the server answered. It does not establish that the campaign page survived.

- James Davies — https://www.jamesdavies.org.uk — Answered (HTTP 200).
- Paul Penlington — https://www.clwydeastconstituency.com — No longer resolved (DNS failure). An outage and a removal look the same in this check.

Text overlap, where it was scored
A separate Wayback comparison scored text overlap for some candidates. It kept the score and an archive URL.
- Paul Penlington — High text overlap with the compared archived page against the 18 July 2024 archive. 100% of April tokens were still found. The capture sits outside the April 2025 scrape window. Sentence text for this comparison is absent from the snapshot. · Open the archive
No replacement sentence is matched. A line that only appears on the later homepage is listed on its own. 3 candidates on this seat have no sentence comparison in the snapshot.
