BBC: Lib Dems set for leadership count

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/4763646.stm

The new leader of the Liberal Democrats is set to be announced, following a ballot of the party's 73,000 members.

The count begins at 0900 GMT with Lord Dholakia, the Lib Dems' deputy leader in the Lords, due to declare the winner shortly after 1500 GMT.

Sir Menzies Campbell, Simon Hughes and Chris Huhne all insist they can win following a month of campaigning.

The winner's first job will be to open the party's spring conference which begins in Harrogate on Friday.
