Second ballot
**Ignatieff: 1481
Rae: 1132
Dion: 974
Kennedy: 884
Dryden: 219
Looks like this one’s between Dion and Rae.
It’s too bad that Dryden’s personality is so flat. He probably would have been a serious contender if he was able to emote. He’s giving his speech now.

Ignatieff is done is probably done. It’s unlikely that Kennedy’s people will overwhelmingly go Iggy.
UPDATE**: Dryden has endorsed Rae. Dryden has advised his delegates to vote as they choose.
UPDATE: Who’s on the 3rd ballot? Will Kennedy drop off and be kingmaker?
