I have just read an analysis that is hinting that the majority of Labour voters backed remain by quite a margin. That will be a relief in some quarters if confirmed. Imagine how pissed off Jeremy would be if the one left wing policy he dropped had proved to be a vote winner after all.0

Out to 8.4 on Betfair.0

Incredible how many are investing based on opinion poll results given the lack of a previous election to base it on and what happened last year - not to mention all the mid match methodology changes0

The best line of the campaign goes to Ruth Davidson.
Ruth: "Boris, name me one country, just one, that has said it will give us a better deal if we are out of the EU?"
Boris: "Er..."

Leave has now traded as high as 10.5 .
In other betfair news, the implied expected turnout from that market is 71-72%, which would be the biggest UK poll since at least the 1997 GE (which was 71.3%).0 -
SCENARIO
- Most people registering late were not new young electors but dupliclates of existing voters
- Young people turning up to vote less than they told the pollsters because on holiday or lazy
- Older people made more determined to vote by the bitter campaign
- Shy LEAVE voters too ashamed about Jo Cox to admit it to pollsters
- Rain causes luke warm REMAIN supporters not to bother to vote
- Postal votes were cast at the time LEAVE were well ahead
- UKIP repeat their GOTV operation when they won the European elections
RESULT. LEAVE win 55/45.0 -

No but if it had been leave ahead 55-45 the wailing in the broadcast media and plummeting of pound and shares would have woken a few of them up.david_herdson said:

I disagree with Mike. If Leave wins by more than a few points (or Remain wins by more than 15) it will be bad, but at least there isn't obvious herding going on like last year.0

This is bollocks. All this bleating, mewling crap about the referendum being awful, divisive, nasty, blah blah. This is democracy, it is rough and ready. This vote is especially rough because we, as a nation, are deciding our future. But WE are deciding. The people. As it should be.Jobabob said:

I voted Remain, I know many on here will be dismayed by that, in truth I am a little myself, but the "head" won out. Cool hard economic reasoning (and a degree of self-interest) over emotion. I did at least hover over the boxes rather than my usual confident crossing of a box without a moment's hesitation. I even felt a bit choked.

I went out to vote at 07.30 to find the station far busier than I have ever seen it before - but like others below, it was not my usual time for voting. We have had many leaflets through the doors in the last few days, including a couple yesterday (*), and several neighbours have put posters for both campaigns in their windows. People I talk to seem much more involved and opinionated with this campaign than even the GE.
I think here in South Cambridgeshire will be fairly heavily remain; I'd be amazed if Cambridge itself voted leave; the local paper has been heavily for remain, and the university makes a leave vote unlikely.
My on-the-day guess is that there wil be a very high turnout: >80% would not surprise me. I hope I'm right, as the more people who vote, and the bigger the margin, the better for the country. If it is closed than 5% either way then we are going to be in for some very interesting times. 10% or more would be better for the country.
(*) I wonder if a high PV turnout in this referendum will mean the traditional late flurry of leaflets will be lessened as combatants realise that they do not catch people who send their PVs in early.0 -

If these polls are right then Dave will retire in eighteen months, enrolled for eternity in the pantheon of political gods. But they don't smell right to me. Nor to they concur with my psychic vision: long lens, grainy - Dave stalking up Downing Street for his emergency Cabinet meeting. Cut to Farage with a pint in hand grinning like a hippo: 'This is truly the most wonderful moment of my life...'0
-
The "reasons" why there "can't" be an exit poll are crap. You don't need to compare the data to previous votes. Just pick some wards across the country which taken together are roughly representative, sit there and ask people how they've voted. Of course that would be an exit poll.0

Feel very much the same as I did by this point at last years GE. I think Leave have just done enough to pull this one off, against all the odds.

Yes, but there has been lots of media attention on how well the university does out of the EU. And whilst I sadly have not been able to spend time in t'pub to talk to locals, other conversations have indicated that the usual town vs gown split is curiously absent this time.

Fortunately for Remain these polls have arrived too late for most voters to take any notice. Complacency was always a danger for the Remain camp. So too close to call as most polls were up to 24 hours ago was perfect for them as it seems to have ensured a high turnout..0

Anecdata. Chatting to the barman in a West End pub. Young, posh. Family from the sticks. Off to vote Leave on his lunch break. Says he doesn't believe a word either campaign say but has spent hours reading independently this week. Says he can't tell his flatmates because they would "have his head on a stick". Convinced me that there are shy leavers in London.0

Maybe, as I reported earlier I did see some C2DEs at the polling station earlier; people who I know don't usually vote (because "what's the f***ing point the Tories always get in round here"). I don't know which way they voted, but at least they were voting.Concanvasser said:Feel very much the same as I did by this point at last years GE. I think Leave have just done enough to pull this one off, against all the odds.
My gut feeling is that Chesterton's "secret people" are going to make their presence felt today.

If Leave do win from here then Osborne probably will have to close the markets tomorrow. It will be absolute carnage.0

Using the same methodology as last week's poll, the MORI poll is even closer, 51/49%.SouthamObserver said:
Most people won't see the Populous poll. The Standard one is close enough to worry any Remainer.AndyJS said:Some people who haven't voted yet may be saying to themselves "I want Remain to win but not by 10%. Maybe I should vote tactically."

About 20 people know or care about this poll, and they're all on here, and they've known how they're voting since this ref was called!AndyJS said:Some people who haven't voted yet may be saying to themselves "I want Remain to win but not by 10%. Maybe I should vote tactically."

Feels like last GE. Ed Miliband, hmm seems a bit risky option with his left wing sounding policies and Cameron is ok despite being a Tory, safety first.0 -

The 'expert' number-crunchers and researchers seem to be all over the place, even if the actual phone polls seem to be pointing to a remain victory.

Although I don't think polling should be released on the day of an election, the number of people interested or care are all media and people on here. Normal folk who take little interest in politics will be at work or watching Jeremy Kyle and at some point may or may not pop down the polling station and cast their vote knowing nothing of these polls.0

A funny article. The conclusion at the end doesn't justify the title he has given it. Early indications are that he could be way out on turnout (although we won't really know until people start coming home from work). On likelihood to vote he edges it for remain given the social class divide, and on GOTV he edges it for the established parties over UKIP. So it's not obvious where his (non) conclusion comes from, other than his own preference and some rather shaky supposed foreign precedents....Scott_P said:Seems like a good time to post this

OK just came back from a vote leave campaign centre and there was nothing to do because we have no to very little data! Remain are united so have masses of data whereas ukip ran their own campaign so weren't allowed to share their data with us. Its all over bar the crying.0
