    Dodds is in.

    If the TUV's can't beat Diane Dodds in the European elections they don't hold any chance in local elections, not unless they come up with something new for the electorate to vote for. Something other than simply being against power-sharing with Sinn Fein.
    I think a hair piece is required for the North antrim battle with Jnr, or at the very least a wicked comb over

    She didn't make the quota but was deemed elected i.e. if the counting continued she was most likely to get the transfers.
    Slightly incorrect. If Alban Maguinnes got all the transfers he would still not reach Diane Dodd's current total, hence she was elected.

    :-) You are right Nar. Either way, she still didnt make the quota required to be elected outright. I notice Peter Robinson ignored the question completely when asked about it on UTV just now. It always amazes me how politicians can skilfully ignore a question and manage to make a statement at the same time

    No she didn't you are quite correct. Yeah they are all good at weaseling out of a question!
