I would take a guess that E will be used for the hourly news updates when it breaks from the BBC coverage of the Local Elections.
I suspect that C would not be used at all during this year's coverage of the elections because the cutbacks that merged the news channels recently are now under a more restrictive financial footing.
The BBC do somewhat have the advantage of having both C and E to spare in London. However the recent plans to stop using C overnight does make sense to me while the Washington studio coverage goes out as normal on the World Feed.
