Rishi Sunak won the most recent voting round on Thursday with 101 votes, tightening his hold on the campaign to succeed Boris Johnson as leader of the Conservative Party and prime minister of the United Kingdom. Suella Braverman, the Indian-origin Attorney General who was in the race, was eliminated from the shortlist after receiving the fewest votes (27), and there are now only five contenders left in the Tory leadership race. After the second round of voting by legislators, only Trade Minister Penny Mordaunt (83 votes), Foreign Secretary Liz Truss (64 votes), former minister Kemi Badenoch (49 votes), and Tory backbencher Tom Tugendhat (32 votes) are still on the ballot in the tight race. Early next week, Conservative Party members of Parliament will vote in the subsequent rounds to reduce this list to just two by next Thursday.
