On Unlock Democracy Elections

I have been elected to the Council of Unlock Democracy. I'll be serving the North Constituency as the third member and most northerly member.
This follows my unsuccessful attempt to be elected to the Electoral Reform Society council last year.
It's quite a responsibilty.
The second item is that I'll be providing some brief electoral analysis. I'll be using a format developed by the most excellent Lallands Peat Worrier to chart the election results.
The charts show the accumlated votes for each candidate as the count moves through each round. I think they give a better indication of how close the election result was at a glance in a way that a quick look at first preferences doesn't.
I'll be starting with the West Constituency.

Btw w4 should grab a drink and have a chat sometime. When I've sorted sofas and stuff, you and MZ should come to supper or something.

We should probably have you round first - on account of our having sofas already.
