All 66 clubs in the National League, National League North and National League South have until the end of the month to cast their votes, although an outcome is expected much sooner.

Clubs in all three divisions have been asked to vote on whether they want to decide the fate of their own leagues or be grouped together, and if they should be made null and void.

The vote came about after it emerged that government funding for the rest of the campaign will be provided in loans and not grants, which is not what clubs were expecting.

Chesterfield want the Step One season to continue, as do Notts County, Hartlepool United and Sutton United.

King’s Lynn Town have voted to end the campaign, while Wrexham have opted to abstain because they are not eligible for government funding because of of the club’s location.

Other clubs will have submitted their vote but have not gone public.
