The number of candidates vying for the leadership of the B.C. Conservatives has fallen to seven after two candidates dropped out of the race and endorsed their political opponents.
Abbotsford South MLA Bruce Banman and Langley-Abbotsford MLA Harman Bhangu both announced their withdrawals from the race this week and each member of the provincial legislature has endorsed different candidates for the top spot.
