At most two more counts to go in #MidlandsNW #europeanElections24 constituency.
After count 19, the gap between the bottom two is 3796.
If the difference between them is less than 5429 (Ming Flanagan's excess) once Lisa Chambers 62818 votes are distributed in count 20, then there will need to be a count 21.

Chambers was too far behind for Ming's excess to matter.
I bet the staff are hoping they don't come into play so that they can finish (very slightly earlier).
