UK General Election, 2017 - Election Day and Results Thread

[#TheShadowyAbyss]

Turnout in Sunderland Central up 5%

[Classic Conservative]

Anything from Nuttall's constituency yet? I just want to see if he is doing not poorly or worse than normal?

Results are only announced when all ballots in the entire district have been counted. We will probably get the better UKIP seats around 2 AM EST

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

Boris Johnson 5/1
Priti Patel 28/5

[Silent Hunter]

Labour VERY optimistic about Hastings, Tories not so much.

Rudd could be a major scalp, but not the biggest if the SNP lose Moray.

[Silent Hunter]

I never felt that it was going to be 350+. Always felt that was wishful thinking after May moved so far to the right (or showed her true colors).

LOL she moved to the Left and didn't talk about immigration...

She moved to the right on the economy, which made many swing voters and potential Conservative voters think "the nasty party" was back and that May was simply another business conservative instead of someone who's there for ordinary people too. She blew it with the "dementia tax" and fox hunting nonsense.

We still don"t know if she has "blown it".

Any party leaders who might lose their riding? (Of those who hold their ridings at present.)

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

Any party leaders who might lose their riding?

I heard the SNP deputy leader is 99% certain to lose his.

So, is this the slow time before it really starts revving up?

Ok, then we're d'accord. Big mistake.

Pattel is on BBC.

Angus Robertson, the SNP Westminster leader in Moray.

Is there a sense of whether or not there's going to be a rush of results at any point in time? Or are they going to trickle in?

[Classic Conservative]

Swindon North and Sunderland Central should be declaring soon.

[Lachi]

BBC saying the young vote has come out to vote, in line with that the polls where thinking.

Thanks for the answers to my question!

The results usually start to rush in an hour or two after the first results come in.  Then the stragglers come in slowly hours later.

Those polls also projected a Tory majority.

[#TheShadowyAbyss]

Swing to Tories in Sunderland Central of 2.3%

[Tintrlvr]

Very slight swing to the Conservatives in Sunderland Central also, both Labour and Tories gaining about 5,000 votes each.

[Classic Conservative]

4.6% to the Conservatives

[Dutch Conservative]

Swing to Tories in Sunderland Central.

Quite large actually!

[Silent Hunter]

I think we can junk the exiit poll then...

[CMB222]

+10% for CON
+5% for LAB in Sunderland Central

[#TheShadowyAbyss]

Telford is close apparently.

Nobody cares about twitter.
