Both candidates good

The polling for co-leader of the Green Party is understandably labelled by the media as a resounding victory but by a quirk of democracy this is unfair. The figures show that many of us voting members were of like mind, which is good, but they do not show that, judging from discussions I have witnessed, in each individual mind it was a close call, which is also good. The respect and support for both candidates is remarkably high.
