    I always thought people would 'bottle' the unknown vote and stick with the 2 they know. Still it looks a bit iffy. Record number of postal votes tho and they dont get counted.

    Yeah absolutely, so people could be locked in the station, or given some form of card at 10 to say they were there at 10pm. It's very odd that in today in a democratic society we are turning away voters!

    Hmmmmmm...... not really pleased about results up to now. I thought the Lib Dems would have done better. Still a number undeclared. If we do have a hung parliament, I wonder who will sit in no 10. Will Brown be able to do a deal and stay or will he resign and let Cameron in???? Who will make deals with who? It's so open. When you look at percentages, it would be great if there was proportional representation in the UK.

    Edit: My constituency just declared. Vincent Cable re-elected with a healthy majority.

    Edit again: Lib Dems lost Richmond Park to that plonker Goldsmith! :shock:

    To now:

    Conservative - 287 seats, 36.2% of votes
    Labour - 241 seats, 28.9% of votes
    Liberal Democrat - 51seats, 22.9% of votes

    About 45 more seats need to be declared.

    When you look at the percentage of votes, it's quite close. This is where proportional representation would be good!

    The next thing is how the parties are going to deal with this hung parliament. If they do not come to an agreement, parliament is dissolved and there are re-elections.

    From a few comments I heard from people that would normally vote Lib Dem is that, because they just did not want the tories in and thought the lib dems wouldn't really have a change at no. 10, they voted labour instead. Just to try and keep tories out. So tactical voting. Though when you look at percentages, the popular vote is still good!
