This time last night I felt it really could go either way, despite the bookies making Andy Burnham favourite.Watching from a relative distance has felt a little exciting. It's the first time this situation has happened during my lifetime, I believe. Considering what's at stake, a 58.7% turnout seemed very low... but then I read that the turnout in Makerfield for the last General Election was only 52.5%, which puts it into perspective.Seeing these results I still find my head spinning at how quickly the political landscape has changed. The Tories are on the way to extinction.</blockquote>
