YouGov's "exit poll" says: Con 284, Lab 263, LD 31, SNP 48
This has a sample size of 6000. The BBC one has 20,000...

Sad

Sad

Increase in polling size after 2,000 respondents has almost no effect on the margin of error.

Nationwide - you are right. But the point of polling 20,000 is to have constituency samples.
Also the Yougov poll isn't even an exit poll, it's a recontact survey.

Electoral Calculus who were most accurate at the 2010 election are predicting:

CON = 280

LAB = 274

LIB DEM = 21

SNP = 52

He's not an MP so that's not possible.

Swings away from Labour in London and now Wales is just terrible.
