To be fair, I thought Coe and Samaranch were the favourites as well but that basically came entirely from Totallympics When I moved outside of the Totallympics bubble for a bit and read on a Dutch forum, people were more or less expecting Coventry, my mind was blown
Not that i followed the process consistently but from what i saw or heard, Coe and Samaranch Jr were obvious favorites. They were hyped, Kristy wasnt. At least i thought so.
Her being endorsed by Bach is completely new to me.

Not so sure about this election outcome but:
1. I am glad that woman won
2. I am glad that someone from Africa won
3. I am glad that outsider for the position won
4. I hope that she will be sane enough to enrich the Games with good sport choices - to focus on athletes, not on DEI policy
5. Modernisation of Games is a must but it shouldn't be done the way Bach did it. Experiments with stupid mix relays, breakdancing are here to reminds us what NOT to do.
6. I hope that she will solve participation issue
