Scotland confirmed to have it's first trans MSP (Scottish MP) I hear.
-
@SarahAS2 @Natasha_Jay Iris is third on the SGP list for Glasgow, Holly Bruce was second and already won the Southside constituency seat... and the SGP have definitely won at least two Glasgow region seats. So, yes, Iris will be elected today
-
@Natasha_Jay sadly not - she was pipped by the SNP
-
@SarahAS2 @Natasha_Jay in the Glasgow region, eight constituencies, all the constituency results are in and 7/8 of the regional results are in - and Allan of BallotBoxScot did an analysis I didn't follow showing no matter what the remaining vote are, the SGP are winning at least two region seats

-
@SarahAS2 @Natasha_Jay I've been spending all day thinking about how to make a visualisation of AMS voting with the regional vote share being divided by the number of seats already won... such a visualisation probably exists already

@alexmorgannn
It appears she may have been pipped by another Green Party trans MSP, I'm waiting to understand if that means Q Manivannan or Iris is the first or both! Good news regardless. -
