Extremely stupid question, but I've only been tuning in intermittently: Am I understanding things correctly in that they don't release any of the returns for a given constituency until 100% of the votes in that constituency have been counted?  So there's no "running tally" for a particular constituency?


I think that's how they do it.

Another monster Labour majority in Easington. Tories finally regained Newbury.
Good news for you Earl; LibDems hold Cheadle

Yes, I saw the count on BBC World. Woohoo!

God damn it, I can't find any other channels that are covering it.

Try BBC World. Great coverage so far.

I guess Galloway getting elected is kinda like Carolyn Parrish getting re-elected in Canada.

I have a question. Why do your polls close so late? It seems to be such an inconvenience, especially considering how long it takes results to come in.
