Recruiter elections
Recruiter elections were elections held during the seventeenth century to fill vacant seats in the House of Commons in England. The words 'recruit' and 'recruiter' meant nothing more than ''filling a vacancy'', so, the contemporary phrase recruiter member of parliament, meant nothing more than a member of the House of Commons who had been elected in a By-election.
During the English Civil War and Interregnum, no national or general election was held in England for twenty years, from the 1640 elections to the Long Parliament, until the 1660 elections to Charles II’s Convention Parliament. From 1645, the many vacant seats that arose in the Long and Rump Parliaments, by death and arbitrary expulsion (initially of many Royalist members, and later of many Leveller and Puritan members in Pride’s military coup d'état, were filled by Bye, or, so-called 'Recruiter elections'.
It seems clear that there was some stage management of the recruiter elections;〔David Underdown, 'Party Management in the Recruiter Elections, 1645-1648,' ''The English Historical Review'', Vol.83, No.327 (Apr., 1968), 235-264.〕 indeed, it has been suggested that the recruiter elections during the period of the Civil War led to the change in character of elections from an Elizabethan model based on clientship and personality, to the beginning of system managed by party politics.〔Lawrence Stone, 'The electoral influence of the second Earl of Salisbury, 1614-68,' ''The English Historical Review'', Vol.71, No.280 (Jul., 1956), 384-400. J R Jones, ''The first Whigs' (London, 1961). D Brunton & D H Pennington, ''Members of the Long Parliament'' (London, 1954).〕
