Sadiq Khan expected to get 44% of the vote
A quick (legal!) hack of the London Elects website shows the percentages City Hall staff have given to each candidate.
They put Sadiq Khan on 44% and Zac Goldsmith on just 35% on what are most likely first preference votes.
Trailing behind are the Greens’ Sian Berry on 6% and the Lib Dems’ Caroline Pidgeon on 5%.
Ukip is put on 4%, the Women’s Equality Party on 2% and the seemingly un-get-riddable George Galloway on a mighty 1%.
