Poll: The official I voted/election results thread

[The Geezer]

BBC have the CGI out again!

Much fancier this year - lots of hexagons

 

[Danthus]

Can the two election threads be merged or one closed please?

Labour = 3

Others = 0

3/650

Yea we know, it's on every news site.

How can Jeremy Vine read what's on the tiles when he's looking down on the floor at a green cloth?

A fringe that's predicted to win as many seats as UKIP?

That just demonstrates how wrong the system is in terms of share of the vote.

Should all discussion not go into this thread now?

Struggling to keep up too, it's been a long day

Thornbury will be interesting. Where I used to live. Very strong lib dem seat, but I know a few who have switched from lib dem to Tories.
A lot of Steve webbs support comes from what he's done locally rather than because he's lib dem and with Tories and labour being so close, it looks like a lot have changed.

Can we merge the two results threads (this and the newer results one)? Or lock one. Cba following two threads.

Report one thread to a Mod and ask.

ukip is going take a lot of the conservatives vote away and labour is losing a lot of the scottish vote but labour said no coalition with snp.

And I promise you, Milliband's promise not to in any way deal with the SNP is a complete lie.

 

[Danthus]

I have.

ITV show is quite dull looking compared to the BBC presentation.

There's only one reason he said that, and that was to try to convince Scots to stay labour.

 

[George Hincapie]

I have.

Nice one

Ha. I am wrong. You told me so, so you must be right, right? God bless the internet and all it's anonymous *****. And that's the c word isn't it.

I have.

Thanks fella

You do realise the system was originally bought in to help a Labour government win/stay in, right?

FPTP was introduced in 1884, Labour party founded in 1900, strong fax.

If the exit poll is right, he is on the phone to Sturgeon as we speak.

What happened when we had the vote to ditch FPTP for AV?

AV was rejected by voters.

That in no way means that FPTP is preferred to all other systems. Just that AV isn't any better.

The Tories were afraid to put PR on the table. But then Labour don't want it either. So looks like we're stuck with FPTP for the foreseeable future. How can it change when the two biggest parties won't even give people the option to change it?
