So the BBC results page is pretty good, right? Any other good sites, especially one that shows the popular vote and how each constituency has voted?

I get the feeling Labour is being underestimated here.

Same. Had that feeling for quite some time now.

Of the 32 obvious target seats, Conservatives seem to have taken only two. (according to the Exit poll)

Btw: Here is the BBC results page in case anyone hasn't seen it yet:

Britain Elects‏ @britainelects  1m1 minute ago More  Told Labour may hold Newcastle Under Lyme. Would be a shock if so.

Analogy would be like McCaskill winning again.

Probably a stupid question, but why exactly is there such a large swing to CON in Scotland? Labour is underperforming in many SNP-held seats, it seems.

Ugly results for Labour in Scotland. May be what saves the Conservatives in the end.

It's awfully strange that the pacifist socialist was able to win back UKIP voters.

I don't think that's strange at all.
