There were two candidates and all members of the party were balloted using the Alternative Vote preference system. The election was won by Paddy Ashdown , who served as leader until his stepping down in 1999. The campaign occurred in a party which was still coping with the merger and saw a vituperative attack on Ashdown in a letter written by Alex Carlile , a Beith-supporting MP. RESULTS REFERENCES
