I've never voted for the winner since I started voting in 1987... but having gone blue in Finchley I suspect I've broken that record.initforthemoney said:
I've been voting since 1997 too and pretty certain I've kept up my record of failing to vote for a winner.Bob__Sykes said:Finally voted in Bury South, in my marginal straight Lab/Tory ward. "Steady" was the word used to describe activity today. It seemed slightly quieter than when I last voted there around the same time in 2015 - although that was a pleasantly warm May evening not biting December drizzle.
With sweaty palms and a heavy remainer-ish heart, I voted Tory. As always. I felt choked as I left at the thought I've just dived in with those of insane Brexit mind like Boris, Mogg and Foster et al. But Corbyn and McDonnell turn my stomach and will do until hopefully around 3-4am tonight when I can turn in safe and sleep.
Brexit will go on and on and won't get done. And I suspect the next Labour Govt in 5 years will probably quickly hold a new referendum and turn the ongoing transition period into EU re-entry. But in the meantime, at least a fairly moderate Tory PM can steady the ship otherwise.
Assuming he doesn't lose his seat tonight and we end up with Rees Mogg or some other horror.
I've lived here for 9 years and been waiting for it to go back blue but it never has. So tonight it might if all the polls and predictions are right. I can't really see it, but I might for the first time since I started voting in 1997 actually have voted for a winning GE candidate tonight.
Interestingly, I realised driving home that I didn't know where my polling station was. I had a postal vote in 2017, and the library has been closed since 2015 (Labour council cuts). I googled "find my polling station" and clicked on Labour's own site. I was urged by Jez himself to go to the place I voted at in the locals in May.
Wrong. Back to the library (now a community hub). What's one more untruth from Corbyn to finish the campaign.... :-)1 -
Whatever happens tonight...Tories are going to get crushed in the next election.
Tories have nothing left message wise other than I’m not as bad as the other guy. 5 years of nothingness. Big tech and automation will continue to cut jobs and the uk has no answers. More jobs will move overseas. Larger companies will get stronger. Rural towns will become more rural. Factories will not need people but just be automated then it will be trucks then retail and so on and so on.
Tories arent focuses on the big issues. It’s just carry on as we are.1 -

Everybody has overreacted because of 2017. It's not going to be a surprise. Boris gets 350/360 and Labour 215/220 no landslide but decent majority of 45 / 55.

A couple of things re the anecdotes,
1. Looks like Tories have done well in Durham / NE (thinking Pidcock comments / early view Bishop Auckland is Tory, though Rochdale mentioned Stockton might be seeing Labour voters out;
2. If turnout high, I think it probably benefits the Tories as more likely to be a repeat of 2016 i.e. non-voters coming out.
3. London a bit odd. Talk Labour doing very well but some weird patterns. Johnson possibly in trouble but Labour pulling activists out of Chingford and asking for help in Battersea
4. Walsall South going to the Tories would suggest a whole swathe of Labour seats in the Midlands are gone;
5. We do not seem to have much from Wales, the NW and Yorkshire. Those could be key.0 -

In order to get sight of the exit poll before 10pm you have to sign an NDA. No NDA, no exit poll. If you have signed the NDA and see the exit poll, you cannot reveal anything before 10pm.
