A record number of candidates was believed to have been nom- inated but the exact figure was delayed by slow communications | from some constituencies. Unofficial figures placed the to- tal at 92, made up of 33 Liberals, $2 Conservatives, 18 Democrats, seven members of the UNP and two independents.
