    You must not have read my earlier response to that.

    Yep, 1,500 members voted? What's the benchmark? The 770 odd Greens who voted in their leadership election? Or the 0 Labour and Fianna Fáil members who voted for their new leaders?

    Prity good activity by those standards I think.
    That doesn't count members who are not eligable to vote.
    Like myself

    Eh? You really are bitter about what's happening to your party, aren't you, kbyrne?
    No way near as bitter as you seem to be.

    No, I'm not bitter in the slightest, nor is there any bitterness in any of my posts in this thread - if you can spot any, why don't you point it out? Why would I be bitter, anyway? What have I to be bitter about?

    Anyway, given that the votes were counted long ago, has anyone got any word on the result?
    "Elite - a small superior group; esp one that has a power out of proportion to its size." (Oxford English Dictionary)

    The majority cannot therefore be the elite.
