Good points everyone. Hereīs another reason:

The elves didnīt need a King Elrond. They all had their own leaders: Cirdan for the Grey Hsvens, Galadriel&Celeborn in Lórien, Tharanduil in Mirkwood etc. Besides, Elrond was considered the leader ("king," if thatīs what you want to call it) in matters of lore and wisdom anyway. His house was something like the interlectuall and moral "court" of Middle-Earth anyway, and the otherīs accepted them as their interlectuall leader, but not as their king.

And something else: do you seriously think Galadriel would have let her son-in-law become her king?? [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
