What happened here

  1. What was recorded

    The April 2025 scrape recorded 4 candidate websites for Hitchin.

    • Alistair Strathern — Labour Party — https://www.alistairstrathern.com
    • Bim Afolami — Conservative and Unionist Party — https://www.bimafolami.co.uk
    • Charles Spencer Bunker — Reform UK — https://reformuk-herts.uk/herts-wards/hitchin
    • Sid Cordle — Christian Peoples Alliance — http://www.cpaparty.net

  2. What the audit found

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

    • Alistair Strathern — https://www.alistairstrathern.com — No longer resolved (DNS failure). An outage and a removal look the same in this check.
    • Bim Afolami — https://www.bimafolami.co.uk — Audit result: Timed out.
    • Charles Spencer Bunker — https://reformuk-herts.uk/herts-wards/hitchin — Audit result: HTTP error (HTTP 404).
    • Sid Cordle — http://www.cpaparty.net — Redirected to https://cpaparty.net/.

  3. What happened to the words

    A homepage fetch was compared with the April site text for 1 of the 4 candidates here. A sentence missing from that fetch is not matched to a replacement.

    • Sid Cordle — 9 sentences from the April text were not found on the homepage fetch of http://www.cpaparty.net. Example from the April text: “please donate to support the cpa iNTRODUCING THE christian peoples alliance CPA: our general election policies We will raise money from: 1.”

  4. Text overlap, where it was scored

    A separate Wayback comparison scored text overlap for some candidates. It kept the score and an archive URL.

    • Alistair Strathern — Substantial text difference from the compared archived page against the 25 April 2025 archive. 27% of April tokens were still found. 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.
