Thanks everyone, not a big enough response to gain anything from it. But interesting to see browsers at about 23%.

1000 views a day you say.

Let's do some modelling a la The London Imperial College Covid deaths modelling.

1000 views a day is 1000 votes for you.

Times seven is 7000 votes for you each week.

How many weeks till the election?

I will (might) look it up and add it in later, but if I look it up now then this clever comment might disappear.

Let's say that from when nominations opened till voting day was 10 weeks then you will get 7,000 votes times 10.

Equals 70,000 votes.

Multiple that by about 100 to allow for cross infections and from an abundance of caution and the Imperial College formula says that you will have a landslide victory of 7,000,000 votes.

I can see why Aaron's Muppets are freaking out.

LOL

Their analysis seems to be that if I run he won't win and Lee will. But he won't win regardless. The two woke beards handing out brochures for him at 8am Saturday at the farmers market got my rather succinct analysis of Aaron twice in 30 seconds after one of them (probably abusive Daniel from Twitter) said that he knew Aaron personally, they then got told to move over the other side of the road and stop using the market (which Aaron will once or twice a year swansong around like some king) so when I came out to have a coffee across the road they were on the other side of the road to the market. And then 30 minutes later they were gone, no doubt passing on the info that nobody at the markets cares for Aaron whatsoever. Aaron is toast no matter what. He should resign from the election now.

Three years ago the same thing happened but that time it was Aaron with his campaign manager not two Green Party beards. Aaron obviously considers getting out into the electorate the same way I consider going on Twitter to spread my message. He gets negativity from that, I get negativity in spades from platforms like Twitter which are not based in reality at all and should actually be shut down for the good of society.

Actually I think going out in the community is a good idea. As you say it is the real world. Aaron has plenty of stooges to do both for him of course.

Have already figured on that. Not much point door knocking though when you don't have a party's resources behind you.

You, Richard, would get invited in for a cup of tea and a chat, or a beer and pizza; therefore you'd only get a couple done each day. Of course Aaron's muppets would get a lot done in a day because they would be given short shrift.

Nice social life for you Richard though if you're not too busy.
