Dear Bill,
Thanks for your understanding of the situation. Do you think, and I
invite other readers to comment, that the 2008 Burnier voters are now
irreconcilably opposed to an Algeo presidency and will vote for
whomever runs against him? Which would mean, is Radha now alienated
enough from him to try to steer the Indian section to support someone
else upon her passing?
These excerpts are why I ask:

Do you mean to suggest that the result of this election is that John
Algeo will never become PTS? He obviously has very solid support in
Western Europe and the US, but the numbers from Asia, Africa, and
Latin America do not look good for him in the future nor perhaps for
any US candidate.
Not having the slightest clue about the duties of a TS VP, I wonder
whether it matters operationally if there is a big breach between the
President and Vice-President, which one imagines there is and will be
for some time.
