    John Curtice and his exit poll looked nervous about his projections but that exit poll is not far out at all and what does this outcome say about Peter Kellner and YouGov,Lord Ashcroft and the rest,who have turned out to be offering snake-oil? Heads must surely roll.

    They may have been right when they polled if a lot of voters (right-leaning kippers?) changed their minds on the day, as per Jack Straw's anecdote.

    What they need to do to control for this is to fool a bunch of voters into thinking the election is a week earlier, and see how they actually vote in the fake ballot booth.

    My Tory target list goes up to number 150 for swings of up to 10%.

    Twickenham isn't on it because the swing required was 10.2%.

    Balls would be the cream on the cherry on the cake.

    How many more LD gains by Con are possible? I assume my patch, Cornwall, will be a clean sweep?

    It's going to be a close run thing whether Labour hits 30%. Currently down slightly after 300 results.
