#PHL2015: Introducing Billy Penn’s Lego Results Tracker
Hi folks!
We’re trying something new for tonight’s Mayoral Primary… we were quite taken with Mashable‘s outstanding Lego tracker of the recent Parliamentary election, we figured we’d do our own version.
We’ve already turned the candidates into Emoji. So now, let’s see what they look like as Lego people, hm?
Lynne Abraham
Nelson Diaz
Jim Kenney
Doug Oliver
Milton Street
Anthony Hardy Williams
Much better!
So, as results come in, we’ll keep track of who’s winning with bar charts topped off by that candidate’s Lego-head. The top head on the chart gets put atop the Lego mayor figure. Make sense? Kind of! Welcome to election night results, Billy Penn-style.
