Diane James came to prominence in the February 2013 Eastleigh by-election when UKIP achieved a very creditable second place behind the LDs.
If she does get elected then UKIP would join the Conservatives, the SNP, the DUP, PC, and the Greens in having women leaders.
The UKIP short-list will be finalised tomorrow.
