Tasks on election night for noble fellows (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

counts

This clue is a double definition.

'tasks on election night' is the first definition.
(counting ballots)

'noble fellows' is the second definition.
(count is a type of aristocrat or nobleman)

'for' is the link.

(Other definitions for counts that I've seen before include "Numbers" , "Determines the number of" , "Enumerates like minor aristocracy" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
