Sunak or Truss will replace Boris Johnson
The next prime minister of the UK will be either Rishi Sunak or Liz Truss, after the Tories narrowed the field to the final two options.
The final round of votes eliminated Penny Mordaunt from the contest to find a new leader for the United Kingdom.
Rishi Sunak and Liz Truss now enter six-weeks of hustings, where they will attempt to convince the Conservative membership at large that they are the right person to enter Downing Street.
Boris Johnson resigned as UK Prime Minister in early July, but remained on as interim prime minister until his replacement could be found.
The Conservative Party membership will now vote on whether Rishi Sunak or Liz Truss should lead the party.
The results of these votes – which are likely to be postal ballots – won’t be announced until September 5th.
At which point, the United Kingdom will either have its third female prime minister, or its first prime minister of Asian minority ethnic background.
