Person seeking election (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

candidate

(Other definitions for candidate that I've seen before include "One hoping to be chosen" , "Person seeking office or appointment" , "Applicant, nominee 99)" , "Campaigner" , "Job applicant or political aspirant" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
