I doubt they all get on the ballot, though it'd be nice if they did. But I don't know, even hypothetically. The old problem resurfaces; should you vote for the candidate who seems to be closest to your views (overall, anyway) or the one most likely to hit the right notes with the public?

Well, this is assuming the MP nominations weren't required I personally voted for the ones closest to my views, but I also included some aspect of public popularity.
