Had to increase the decimal placing to 2 points to figure the winner for this month - don't think we've ever had it that close before!

I confused myself because Reform ran a candidate in that ward in May.

I don't usually read the local profiles very carefully; I don't factor in local factors or specific information about the individual candidates; I just do a broad-brush prediction of what I feel it's vaguely like. Another irony is that I usually do my predictions as numbers (x-hundred votes for each candidate) so the very process of translating the numbers into percentages introduces a level of inaccuracy merely because I do the percentages in whole numbers and then sometimes I have to adjust them further to make them add up to 100. |

It's clearly a great method & I'm sure several of us will now follow suit
