Up to five candidates - including Mr Wallace - will be vying for the final two seats. Asked if he is performing better or worse than in the last election, he said: “Ah no, I did much better the last time. However, with several candidates expected to be in the 50,000 to 60,000 vote range, late round transfers will determine the final seats. The Independents4Change MEP continued: "95pc (of my reception) was positive but that doesn't mean they will go out to vote for you. "I am very grateful to all the people who voted for me in the three elections that I have won so far.
