Monday should be an interesting day for the Election Commission as the "public" interview process begins. I believe the name to watch most closely (aside from Mackay) is Scott Frith. I've heard from several people that Frith is going to be the new administrator and it seems to have Mackay's blessing.
If it happens, it should make you wonder just how open this process actually was. Black Wednesday strikes the Election Commission office?
