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.

I just saw. Now my limitations on the Scottish electoral system show and I await to see if it means 2 trans MSPs.

Either way it's good!

This is my understanding too also via BallotBoxScot and a few trans folk

Without understanding the Scottish system 100%, my understanding too is it's now a mathematical certainty 😊

So, yes, Iris will be elected today 😁
