Slightly better for Labour vs Exit Poll in the last 2 seats. Newcastle East and Swindon North.

Long night ahead

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

Dimbleby sure is entertaining.

 

[whyamihere]

I recently watched the 97 coverage, and there was pretty uniform swings almost everywhere.

Not today.

 

[Twig and Berries]

See, gaf, populism was the answer all along!

 

[Chinner]

yougov says 52% in swindon north for tories - reality 54%

Hoooooly Shiiit

 

[tomtom94]

High turnout. Labour have to hope it's not only in safe seats (like mine, unfortunately)

 

[Fergie]

11+ swing is nice.

 

[King_Moc]

Swindon result giving me a little faith there.

 

[Moozo]

How do I see YouGov % predictions per constituency? I can only see lines on a graph.

 

[Spaghetti]

This is madness.

 

[slider]

Again, YouGov within the statistical margin of error

Honestly, I think we might actually be closer to YouGov than anyone expected. I don't want to get hype, but Labour has actually been very slightly overperforming YouGov's model, if anything.

Crab/anyone, any views on the swings in the North East? I keep thinking that the Leave vote is a big factor there.

 

[mightynine]

I'm so happy I can watch BBC TV coverage in the US

 

[QuicheFontaine]

In the midnight hour, I cried more more more (results please)

Moar Data points pls

 

[sasliquid]

It's my constituency. I voted labour .

You did your part Comrade, this is a team effort and your work is appreciated

 

[Jibbed]

"It's all to play for... which I refuse to say."

Ok mate.

 

[KingSnake]

It's actually impressive how well the YouGov model worked so far.

 

[ElectronicOldMen]

David Dimbleby is everyone's fave crotchety grandparent

 

[empyrean]

My god! Another Swindonian on NeoGaf! Hi there!

Well I live in one of the towns / villages just outside Swindon but Swindon north it my area. It's a small world .

 

[Fernando Fernandez]

Got them hopes up but

Well-placed source has told us tonight that Labour have 'romped' it in Portsmouth South. Interesting stuff.

 

[brain_stew]

Couple of good results for Labour there.

Would be hugely disappointing if Clegg lost his seat, he'd be a big loss to parliament.

 

[Timbuktu]

You guys are so pessimistic.

~~

Also very wrong

Yep. Dimbleby was wrong about that. Both were better for labour.

 

[CelticKnight]

Seem to be that whichever of the 2 "big" parties loses, they do better than the exit poll suggests they would in a losing effort. Very odd.

 

[JonnyDBrit]

Hover over the dots on the lines.

 

[OverBlood 3]

Corbyn's coming home, he's coming home, he's coming home...

 

[Goodlife]

Swindon gives hope

 

[liquidtmd]

BBC sound engineers to lose their seat in the morning

 

[kmag]

SNP confident in East Ren.

 

[Thornton Reed]

If things stay like this I'm buying every sun and daily mail in the 3 shops in my village and they're going straight in the bin

 

[Meadows]

BBC sound engineers to lose their seat in the morning

It's local councils not the BBC

 

[weekev]

Interestingly before exit polls bookies had Corbyn for PM at 5:1 now shortened to 3:1.

If you're on this page just hover over those lines for the figures.

 

[chadskin]

It's actually impressive how well the YouGov model worked so far.

IIRC they were the most accurate pollster in 2015 as well.

 

[VoltrefferNL]

David Dimbleby GOING IN on sound quality: "2017, not 1917".

Brought a smile to my face. Watching with interest as im currently living in Cheshire. No vote from me and the other half gave her ballet to the parents as she is out of the country.

Let see what toninght brings.

 

[Lego Boss]

Gotta get up at 0530, need to go to sleep FFS

 

[WhatNXt]

Dimblebot being annoyed by a fly is my favourite moment of the night so far.

 

[Par Score]

Turnout must be well up considering how long these counts are taking.

Either that or austerity is biting into electoral services.

 

[Audioboxer]

Conservative gains expected in Gordon. Salmond fucked.

Mhairi Black expected to lose her seat. Someone in the topic early mentioned swinging from SNP to Labour in Renfrewshire.

Bottom of Scotland all expected to go Conservative. Time to cut it off.

 

[Uzzy]

Gonna try and get some sleep. Hope I wake up to May's resignation.

 

[jelly]

David Dimbleby is everyone's fave crotchety grandparent

His eyes get smaller every year.

 

[Ghost]

I really should have gotten my holiday Euros yesterday

 

[DeadOnions]

Well this is going to be a long night.

 

[Protome]

Conservative gains expected in Gordon. Salmond fucked.

Salmond losing his seat would make me happy.
Black losing hers would make me sad.

 

[Sodding_Gamer]

So glad I booked tomorrow off. Whatever way the election swings, I'm off to Ireland to see Eddie Vedder at the weekend and get blind drunk.

Never been this interested in politics in my life!

 

[Bumhead]

Someone has to have captured that Elmo waving Theresa off then, surely.

 

[Zyae]

So if yougovs model happens what is the most likely result? Some kind of coalition government?

 

[Zaph]

Sharanjit > your favs

 

[StayDead]

David Dimbleby is a boss. If I could stay up and watch for him I would.

 

[And_Gignac]

In YouGov we trust.

We have already confirmation of bigger than predicted youth turnout, and YouGov´s wonder was that they had a bigger prediction of youth turnout than other pollsters.

 

[whyamihere]

@paulwaugh
Lab gain in Kensington & Chelsea now expected, source on ground says.
That's KENSINGTON AND CHELSEA, people.
If only Portillo was still MP.

oh my
