Sky News have just broadcast a projection of how they think that the first round of voting for the 2008 London Mayoral Election held yesterday went (the following is not the actual result - counting of votes started only 48 minutes ago):

Boris Johnson MP, Conservative - 44%
Livingstone, Labour - 40%
Paddick, europhile Liberal 'Democrats' 11%

* Many political analysts believe that the vote for the Liberal 'Democrats' will split about equally between the Conservative and Labour candidates in the second preference vote distribution.
