Oh God, I hope the #LondonMayoralElection isnโ€™t going to turn out like #Brexit when all the informed liberals said โ€œthat canโ€™t happenโ€ and then it did, and we end up with racist, conspiracist, anti-environmentalist #SusanHall for Mayor
@corin_ja I've lost faith. At the moment I'm assuming that's exactly what will happen. Although at least we'll see what damage that sort of attitude does.
@velobetty Iโ€™m still 70% sure that Sadiq has won, but I think itโ€™ll be close in the circumstances.
@corin_ja I can't think about the outcome until it happens. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ
@corin_ja @velobetty I hope you're right.

@ORIOliver @velobetty interesting theory - somewhat conspiratorial - that the rightwing spread rumours that Hall could win first so that now if Sadiq wins they can sow doubt about the votes, imply so kind of fraud etc - as per Trump playbook.

Maybe this is just what you get when you have a look at twitter, suspicion & misinformation, as I have been doing for the last couple of days!

@corin_ja Please no. I won't be able to sleep. Susan Hall is beyond despicable. Pity #SadiqKhan - he has enough to deal with.
@corin_ja I wonder when we'll get first news about #SadiqKhan ... My fingers triple crossed ... I wish we got more UK news outlets on Masto!
