A lot worse than expected on the second ballot though. * * I haven’t done any maths so that might be bollocks. ** Regan encouraging her voters not to use their second choice probably wasn’t great. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She can't seriously have believed she was going to win Hope she didn't spend a lot of time rehearsing her acceptance speech. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carpetmonster Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 2 minutes ago, Savage Henry said: The Wings element on Twitter is absolutely raging. Multiple posts about the physical appearance of the presiding officer. Forbes actually looks pleased for him - a cynic might say she’s going to be getting a promotion. The best bit will be when Regan doesn’t go to Abla because she likes being elected, yet they’ll still scream ‘trougher’ at everyone else with no sense of irony. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he had got zero second preference votes he would still have won (if they'd just not expressed a second preference rather than defecting to Forbes anyway). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd imagine the logic behind any 'Regan 1, Yousaf 2' votes would be something like: 'Independence above all, but I'm not voting for the 'no sex out of marriage' woman.' 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Central Belt Caley Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Humza was the best out of the 3 imo, not sure I could bring myself to vote SNP if Forbes was leader and Regan was never a serious contender. I fear the horrible union da patter will go from calling Sturgeon, wee jimmy crankie etc to no doubt some very close to the bone comments regarding Humza’s faith/ethnicity. I sincerely hope not but that’s society for you. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iain Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 If all of Regan's voters had declared a second preference Forbes would have needed nearly 84% of them to win. Tough going. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
