I couldn’t possibly comment.

What news from JPC? They must have counted the twenty or so votes each by now? And Peel, presumably a recount until the old guard get back in. ODC equally enthralling along with Castletown. Finally Douglas carving up their executive sub-committees I'll wager

17% in Douglas East. Wowsa.. Public mandate or what

To be fair turnout in Victoria Ward (which made up about 60% of the new East) was 13.6% in 2016, so if anything that's an improvement.  Interesting that all Joughin's campaigning seems to have done is fail to get his wife and one other he supported elected, and I suspect suppressed Ian Clague's vote.

16% turnout in Douglas North. Who still says LA reform isn’t needed?

Again Athol Ward (which is most of North) was 15% turnout in 2012 and not even contested in 2016.  These aren't new problems.

There does seem to be a bit of depression of turnout due to self-isolating.  Castletown was only 35%, down from 40% the last two times.
