God appearing in an election round? (6)
I believe the answer is:
apollo
'god' is the definition.
(Apollo is a Greek god)
'an election round' is the wordplay.
'an' becomes 'a'.
'election' becomes 'poll' (I've seen this before).
'round' becomes 'o' (round can mean a round object).
'a'+'poll'+'o'='APOLLO'
'appearing in' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for apollo that I've seen before include "handsome youth" , "Greek sungod, son of Zeus" , "American space programme for landing men on moon" , "Greek god (twin brother of Artemis)" , "source of name for far-flung missions" .)
