from twitter;

Glasgow list titbits: George Galloway apparently hasn't made it; Conservative Ruth Davidson reasonably confident she has gained a list seat.

I think that Ruth Davidson was the one who was featured in that video where Stegski shouted abuse at the BNP twat. I hope her confidence is as misaligned as when she thought she had a chance in Springburn...

he's supposed to be back on tonight, "God willing"...

I'm really happy the SNP have done so well, it looks like they'll have an overal majority. I thought twice about voting for GG because of his stance against Independence, and it's fair to say that I'm a fan of his in general, so it's not hard to extrapolate from that what the problem might have been.

300 votes for a council seat isn't bad, there were LibDems getting that few in constituency votes yesterday - quite a few even lost their deposits. And they now have 0 MSPs on the mainland who were directly elected.
