Pretty sure she wasn’t on the regional list.

Lib Dems and UKIP getting a right kicking, seem to be in the hundreds in most seats

Any reason for that? It's really disappointing news someone like her is now missing whereas we can expect some Abolish louts to get in.

I don't know, its strange as well because Plaid weren't particularly confident of holding the seat going in
All the smaller parties seem to be getting a kicking, Labour, Tories & Plaid well ahead of the rest atm. Hopefully that means the pre election Abolish hype was misplaced

I agree itll be a shame if shes not in the Sennedd. Plaid dont look like they're going to gain any constituency seats so will hope of increasing their representation by gaining some regional seats from UKIP.

Its a strange one though. The polls immediately before the election looked pretty bad for Plaid but they're picking up votes. Up 1,200 in West Carmarthen, up 200 Clwyd South, up 2,200 in Preseii, up 2,200 in Wrexham, up 2,000 in Montgomery, up 1,000 in Gower
Disappointing results in Aberconwy & Caerphilly for them though

That’s the only one they took in their targeted North Wales Labour seats though it seems.

Yes, she was a constituency candidate and on the list last time. For some reason she isn't on it this time
Re: Senedd election prediction
Mark Reckless (too many drinks in the Westminster bar to vote on a budget when he was an MP) got 3.3% of the vote. I don't swear often on here but he's an absolute prick.

Seriously? Plaid need to do better, but Leanne Wood wasn't the answer.

The answer IS probably someone at the head of the party from the Valleys who seems credible.
As the only real left-wing alternative in Wales, Plaid have to do something to make up some ground in South East Wales.
I think a lot of people vote Labour just because they can't stand the Tories. I voted Plaid in West Carmarthen and part of me thinks it might have been wiser to vote labour , considering the margins.
Re: Senedd election prediction
seems like a good night for labour

I think I saw aswell that Neil Hamilton got less than 1000 votes. Hope that's the end of him too.
