Turnout is estimated at 45%.

This has probably gone to Johnson, but very narrowly.

[Keystone Phil]

Back to back fantastic electoral victories in Europe.

Congrats, Boris!

[Bleeding heart conservative, HTMLdon]

I am so jealous of British Conservatives... it must be nice to be popular

[The Man From G.O.P.]

Anywhere where I can get a running tally or ANY results at all?

BBC website or London Elects. Nothing official yet though.

Yeah, same here...

[The Man From G.O.P.]

Another 2 hours is would seem... 2030 at the earliest?

[Silent Hunter]

Possibly more like 2130- or later.

Should have clearer about this- Britain doesn't do running tallies.

Sorry about that.

If Johnson is ahead in 9 and Livingstone is ahead in 5 of the constituencies on first pref.s, as I read someplace, that would mirror the last assembly elections. Not yet in the bag for Johnson.

No results yet?

[Filuwaúrdjan]

Plenty of rumours flying around. Not sure when the declaration will be, might be quite late.

[Filuwaúrdjan]

First result:

Bexley and Bromley

James Cleverly (C) 105,162 (51.8%)
Alex Heslop (Lab) 29,925 (14.8%)
Tom Papworth (L Dem) 21,244 (10.5%)
Paul Winnett (NF) 11,288 (5.6%)
Ann Garrett (GP) 9,261 (4.6%)
Mick Greenhough (UKIP) 8,021 (4.0%)
John Hemming-Clark (Ind) 6,684 (3.3%)
Miranda Suit (CPA & CP) 4,408 (2.2%)
Steven Uncles (EDP) 2,907 (1.4%)
David Davis (LL) 1,050 (0.5%)

Tory majority c.38%, was 21% in 2004. About 40,000 more people voted for Cleverly than Neill. And Cleverly is black and this is Bromley.

[The Man From G.O.P.]

Glorious

Evening Standard seems pretty confident about it all.

[The Man From G.O.P.]

National Front 6%?


Can someone tell me about that?


Nationalist/Fascist vote seems to add up to about 11%, is it really like that there? Is it a racial devide that causes this?

[Filuwaúrdjan]

National Front 6%?


Can someone tell me about that?

Cleverly is black and this is Bromley

[minionofmidas]

Not a big turnout gap.

[The Man From G.O.P.]

National Front 6%?


Can someone tell me about that?

Cleverly is black and this is Bromley

So 6% of Londoners in this area thinks a black man is unacceptable? And in all it adds up to around 11%?


Yet still he crushed the Labour candidate.


So Bromley is right wing?

C +11.4
L -0.8
LD -8.3
Greenies -0.5
UKIP -12.8
CPA +0.1
 

[The Man From G.O.P.]

Ah, never mind, I'm on London Elects now, I see the 2004 comparison, this is a Tory area, but beyond UKIP which evaporated, all the Right Side parties have big gains, this is what I've been wondering, just how big the swing is, it appears to be a very big one.

Yep. Send three Tories (and noone else) to Westminster throughout the Labour years. Bexley is historically Tory as well, but not quite as much.

Re Hash: So all the Tories did was mop up the UKIP vote? [hyperbole]Time to open up the champagne for Ken's third term I suppose.[/hyperbole]

[Filuwaúrdjan]

Not a big turnout gap.

Yeah... but look at West Central. Eeek!

[Filuwaúrdjan]

There are rumours that Bob Blackman (the Tory incumbent for Brent & Harrow) may have lost.
