At least one contender is set to say the contest should be delayed by three days
If true. Blimey with knobs on. http://t.co/VWVLRCJf3C pic.twitter.com/tUKTjJMjCw

If this story by the Mail is true then whilst it will make the whole process look even more shambolic it might indicate one of the candidates thinks they can still win with late votes. So whomever is the first to call for a delay might be the one to back as I can’t see Corbyn calling for a delay.
One of the problems I foresee with the plan to extend voting until Sunday is the postal ballots as Royal Mail doesn’t deliver on Sundays and this might cause even more problems.
My tip a few days ago of 1/20 on the Labour leadership result NOT being delayed may well join Sion Simon in the hall of fame of political predictions.
