kitster Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 Polls are shut folks. What's the thinking? I am Boom, as long as I can anyway! No idea, the exit polls weren't bad last time so I'm thinking with more advances in technology and voter profiling etc they won't be far away!

Ray Gin Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 Balls to that. Referendum result won't be announced till after 7PM (yes PM) tomorrow evening. The Scottish election results some time tomorrow morning (post 6am). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radioactive Mince Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 I might stay up. Thoughts? SNP overall victory - can't see past it. 'No' to AV - mega high number of spoiled papers. Not sure if SNP will win Dunfermline West. Labour & Lib Dems haven't been great over the years so maybe it's time for a change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leginten Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 I'd really like to stay up but I've had a pig of a week at work so far and the eyelids are already drooping. I'll probably give it a go and wake up shivering at about 3am on the sofa. First results probably not until the wee small hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coco Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 Radio Scotland reporting a poll for the Scottish editions of the Daily Mail (a late campaign poll not exit poll) which has the SNP over 50% in both constituency and list votes. Can't see that coming through in the election poll though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2NaFish Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 Gotta be in work early tomorrow, but i'd imagine i'll stick around for a few hours. Election nights are great fun; from the horrendous grpahics, the dreadful patter about nothing early on, the extrapolating of early results to the rest of the country, the waiting round for something, anything to happen and then the frantic running around when something does.

Radioactive Mince Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 that poll share for the lib dems can't be right, can it? Might well be. Many of their votes at the last general were from traditional Labour voters who will be raging that they've got into bed with THEM. Still seems a tad on the low side, even for all that.

Still seems a tad on the low side, even for all that. it takes the biscuit for them to be being trounced (relatively) by the tories in scotland. if that happens and repeats in the other polls then clegg has some heat to face from his party.

cosanostra Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 LP - exactly, she's just jumping into the most ridiculous liberal stand point on any given question and defending it like her life depended on it. Her logic and ideas are just absurd. She's a clown. Templeton - That remark was just astounding. Even the tory boy with the comedy bowl cut was laughing at her in disbelief. A quite staggeringly stupid thing to suggest. 2na - I felt embarrassed for the guy. Someone should have said "do yourself a favour mate and please stop talking".
