Both of the area links above have a WMC-gss code despite no-one currently having a Westminster election. Should the homepage's search facility suppress the WMC codes from its output when there are no WMC elections?
Even if the WMC code isn't suppressed then since there's only one current election for each of the above examples, should the user be taken straight to the election page for that post, rather than to an area page that lists only one post?
I'm aware there may be value for admins etc in seeing an area page that contains only one election, but feel this is the exception so it should be handled by eg. appending a noredirect flag to the /areas/ links above.
For info, Lock/unlock candidates list and adding single candidates is possible from /area pages, with those features and "bulk add" and "suggest locking" available in /election pages. Personally I'd simplify the /area pages by removing the edit buttons from them.
In GM we only have local elections, eg: https://candidates.democracyclub.org.uk/areas/MTW-gss:E05000836,WMC-gss:E14000979 https://candidates.democracyclub.org.uk/election/local.trafford.2016-05-05/post/MTW:E05000836/stretford-ward
Areas with only a PCC election are handled the same way: https://candidates.democracyclub.org.uk/areas/PDG-police:surrey,WMC-gss:E14000824 https://candidates.democracyclub.org.uk/election/pcc.2016-05-05/post/police:surrey/police-and-crime-commissioner-for-surrey-police
