What the audit found
On 7 September 2026 those URLs were requested again — 1 no longer resolved, 2 redirected, 1 answered with the surname absent, 1 answered. An HTTP success means the server answered. It does not establish that the campaign page survived.
- Lauren Edwards — https://laurenedwards.uk — Answered (HTTP 200).
- Daniel Dabin — https://www.rochester-strood-reform.uk — No longer resolved (DNS failure). An outage and a removal look the same in this check.
- Graham Colley — http://grahamcolley.org — Redirected to https://grahamcolley.org/.
- Kelly Tolhurst — http://www.kelly4rochesterandstrood.com — Redirected to https://www.kelly4rochesterandstrood.com/.
- Peter Richard Ede Burch — https://heritageparty.org — Answered (HTTP 200). The surname was not in the response body. That asks for review; it does not prove the site was repurposed.
