UK General Election, 2017 - Election Day and Results Thread

[Chief Justice Keef]

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

That's what I said. All the signs so far show the exit poll is accurate.

[#TheShadowyAbyss]

Newcastle East:
Labour - 28,127
Con - 8,866
UKIP - 1,315
Lib Dem - 2,574
Green - 755

[Kamala]

Lib Dems worried Nick Clegg is going to get axed.

To Labour or Tories?

[Classic Conservative]

Tories win Swindon North but Labour up 7%

[Classic Conservative]

The exit poll is right probably.

[Silent Hunter]

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

The exit poll was saying that...

[NOVA Green]

Is there a sense of whether or not there's going to be a rush of results at any point in time? Or are they going to trickle in?

Should be a dump of about 7 different districts in about an hour, and then an even larger dump of seats about 6 PM PST---- should give us a better idea by then, but this thing is going to trickle in for hours....

Labour

SWINDON - CON HOLD, swing to Labour of 4%

I hope the rest of the BBC coverage is just David Dimbleby complaining about how bad the sound quality from the declarations is.

[CMB222]

Bad result for Conservatives in Swindon North

[jaichind]

SWINDON - CON HOLD, swing to Labour of 4%

Much better than any model I know.  Exit poll seems more realistic now.  

[○∙◄☻¥tπ[╪AV┼cVê└]

Newcastle Upon Tyne East= Labour Hold

Yeah, Labour did pretty well there.

[#TheShadowyAbyss]

Better result for Labour here.

[SunSt0rm]

Bigger swing to labour in Swindon than expected

[parochial boy]

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

The exit poll was saying that...

Yeah, but, come on...

The exit poll is right probably.

Good lord, can we please not play this doom and gloom-to-OMG we're going to win based off of every individual result? That'll drive you (and everyone else) insane.

Sounds boring. That's what everybody does. That's what nights like these are supposed to look like.

Maybe...

Tories win Swindon North but Labour up 7%

Labour up 10, Tories up 3. That's a 3.5% swing to them.

[kyc0705]

Ah, and here we see Labour overperforming in a seat.

It's... almost as if you can't make judgments on the quality of the exit poll when less than one percent of seats have been called!

WE ARE ALL GOING TO DIE!!!

[Kamala]

Who will win the crucial Jane Eyre vote in Gateshead?

[Silent Hunter]

OK... I think the exit poll may be wrong in places.

[#TheShadowyAbyss]

Paisley and Ren South is close between LAB and SNP

[DavidB.]

Swindon probably confirms it. The Tories may be f**ked.
