So in France will there a Yellow vests list on the ballot ? I see polling that include them but I thought the Yellow vests are really a confederation of very diverse protest groups and there is no way there could be a list with a coherent platform.

So the election will be on May 23 to May 26? Are there different voting days depending on country?  Will the counting and results be announce as soon as the voting is over or all on May 26th ?

This may or may not be an outlier, but...



The Brexit Party ahead of Labour and the Conservatives combined.

Good branding in terms of name.  There is no ambiguity on what the party stands for.

Does anyone have a schedule of when the results will begin to come out?

Polls are now open in most countries.

Results will only be released after 11pm European Time (5pm Eastern in the US), because of sh*tty Italy which keeps their polls open that long, but exit polls and the like will be released once each country closes their polls.

In Austria, this is the case at 5pm, in Germany at 6pm.

If so why cannot UK release their exit polls since they voted a couple of days ago

Dumb question: Did PILZ run with Greens ?

France (exit polls)

RN: 23-26
Lrem: 19-22
LR 11-13
Greens 7-10
LFI: 7-8
PS: 5

Looks pretty good.  Was hoping for LR to better than thia but I will take it.

It looks like turnout will be high in Poland. Who does that benefit?

I have to assume the Centrist pro-EU bloc

[jaichind]

Ipsos prognosis:

RN 23.2%
LREM 21.9%
EELV 12.8%
LR 8.3%
LFI 6.7%
PS 6.7%
DLF 3.6%
G.s 3.4%

Wow.  How come LR dopped so much from the exit poll

[jaichind]

Impressive result for PiS in Poland.  Did not think they will win with that sort of margin.
