The first round took place on Wednesday, July 13, in which Jeremy Hunt and Nadhim Zahawi were eliminated. The second round took place on Thursday and Suella Braverman was left out of the vote.
The remaining candidates will face off in three televised debates and it is suspected that Sunak and Mrs Mordaunt will face off first as they both lead the race.
