Elections are an artform which people see in different ways.
I'm fascinated by elections and I must say that I have not been bored by this campaign. I was, in a sense, the Peter Snow of the BBC's election coverage on television from 1950 to 1979. The very first swingometer was done by a man called Peter Milne, who was working on the 1955 election and commenting on the results in the south-west. I thought it a very good idea, and persuaded the BBC to construct a more elaborate thing than his little model. So in 1959, I stood up in front of this very crude mechanical swingometer, one of many graphic gizmos used on the night.
