The election results thread 19:10 - Jun 8 with 59860 views exiledclaseboy Polls close 10pm. BBC, ITV and SKY release the results of their joint exit poll also at 10pm. Some of you may remember election night two years ago when the exit poll predicted a Tory win. It was roundly ridiculed by politicians of all parties and most us on here. You could see Professor John Curtice (who oversees the poll) visibly wilting and wondering if he'd just wrecked his career and reputation. The same Prof Curtice got progressively more smug as the night rolled on and it turned out his poll was more or less spot on. First result due about 11pm. From Sunderland. The outcome may be a foregone conclusion but it should be exciting for about an hour or so. Get it stickied for 24 hours or so please, mods. Oh, and can someone keep Perch and Bluey away from sharp objects please. Just in case.

Largest party is given first option on forming a government. They could even form a minority government.

Yeah they could do that. im not sure how the Tories can govern on the exit poll numbers. They'd get nothing through.

Boris would fancy the job Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

That would be a massive blow. Rudd's done pretty well this election, raised her profile. The piss poor Tory campaign could well have undermined May, could cause potential replacements to lose their seats. Not a good night.

Theresa said " if she loses just 6 seats , Corbyn will be PM" Was she lying, again?

Of course she must if she loses her majority. We could well be doing this again before Christmas as well.
