UK General Election, 2017 - Election Day and Results Thread

[Gass3268]

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

They are saying that the signals have been very consistant so far.

[jaichind]

Sunderland Central roughly matches Ashcroft 2016 model which has CON getting 350 seats.

[TheSaint250]

I will say that the results are showing the exit poll could be off. As of now, it looks like that would only be a little, but let's wait and see

[Classic Conservative]

Nobody cares about twitter.

I thought your God-Emperor does

That made me laugh.

[SunSt0rm]

Results are only coming from the north east and safe labout seats so far. I want to see other regions and swing seats first before i want to make any conclusion

[Silent Hunter]

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

lol it's been three results bud. 95% of all polls are junk to begin with.

Yes and none of them match it even in a close manner!

[136or142]

All the results so far are from the same region.  Swings could be completely different elsewhere.

I think we should wait for the marginals, Labour is still gaining from UKIP here.

As said earlier, Labour are outperforming YG's model so far which has a hung parliament.

Stephen Bush says the results are matching up with the YouGov model and not exit poll.

True, we will need to see those... but this is worse than expected for Labour.

Yeah, like last time, we need Swindon N and Nuneaton

Are you seriously arguing that the results in three demographically close constituencies in north-east England are representative of the entire country's swing?

Hell, I'm American and I don't even think that makes sense.

[Zinneke]

I'll wait for Nuneaton and if that's solid Torry its over.

[bullmoose88]

Possible "hidden" (my term) Tory strength outside London in postal vote per BBC.

[#TheShadowyAbyss]

portsmouth south is rumored as a labour gain from the count

Stephen Bush says the results are matching up with the YouGov model and not exit poll.

Isn't the YouGov model only calling for 300ish seats for the Tories?

No, but I am arguing that it doesn't match the exit poll at all.

[Shameless Lefty Hack]

I realize what you're saying here, but I definitely read it as Labour knocking off a Tory MP who referred to himself as "The Count."

[#TheShadowyAbyss]

Lib Dems worried Nick Clegg is going to get axed.

Once again:

3 constituencies out of 650.
All demographically similar.
No swing seats called yet.
Polls closed <2 hours ago.

Calm down.

[parochial boy]

I don't see how anyone could have realistically expected Sunderland to swing towards Labour this time round...

[Classic Conservative]

Labour doing better

[nicholas.slaydon]

Newcastle Upon Tyne East= Labour Hold
