Here are the facts and figures from Sunday’s Special Conference:

• Time taken to organise: 4 days – compared to the year that a Lib Dem conference usually takes. Even the Liberal-SDP merger conference of 1988 was arranged with 4 months’ notice.
• Total number of delegates: 1650 (of whom 250 registered on the day). This was larger than any Lib Dem Spring Conference.
• It featured the longest debate at a Liberal Democrat conference (3.5 hours)
• Number of speakers cards submitted: 172
• Number of speeches made: 38
• Number of intervention cards submitted: 110
• Number of interventions taken: 30
• Number of amendments: 9 (all passed)
• Speeches against the motion as a whole: 6 (from a total of 13 cards put in to speak against; so speeches against were over-represented)
• Number of journalists: 0 (Stephen has already blogged about this)

However:

• Number of tweets with the #LDConf hashtag: Tweetminster estimates there were just under 10,000 tweets with this hashtag, which trended in the UK during the conference.

Thanks – and congratulations – to the Federal Conference Committee for organising this historic and extraordinary day, and to party President Ros Scott for chairing the event.
