    I hope it was Lee, I'm loving the idea of growing my own vegetables.

    If Jen Fox hadn't been on the ballot paper RON would have won pretty handily I reckon.

    About 300 of her votes were non transferrable so they went nowhere after she was eliminated. That is what saved geoghan.

    What saved Geoghan is the fact that he picked up 548 transfers whereas RON picked up a meagre 58. Very hard argue that those non-transferable votes would have ended up heading to RON mainly - could have just as easily followed the trend and headed towards Geoghan I reckon.

    When it came to the transfers I was not expecting Geoghan to loose out to RON. Seems that a lot of people voting for Jen Fox were doing so to allow her get a decent polling (and at least allow her get her expenses back) and transferring back to Geoghan knowing that it would come down to the wire and their transfers would determine the outcome.

    From dreamers tbh, never going to happen. SG won democratically, and by over 850 votes after the second count.

    I dislike the way it became a hate campaign against the guy..

    Happy with De Bruin, would have preferred Lorna for welfare though..

    Ah well, best of luck to them all!
