to ask if I'm alone in sensing that the election results will confound the pollsters??

[grovel]

It's just a gut feeling that the nation(s) won't vote as predicted.

I had this feeling last night.

Didn't go so far as to predict what it would actually be, mind...

I think so too. Loads of people on my fb still debating who to vote for and also a queue outside the polling station tonight - first time I've seen that here.

Same here, almost everyone I know was undecided yesterday and a lot of people are deciding in the booth it seems. I can't imagine the pollsters know if most people don't know themselves if that makes sense

I decided in the booth.

I'm another that decided in the booth

Anyone prepared to hazard a guess as to who is going to do better than expected?

I'm (with no comment) guessing that the Tories will do better than expected with a 3 or 4% lead over Labour.

What did you decide in the booth if you don't mind me asking?

I too decided once the pencil was in my hand.

I think UKIP will do worryingly well. More than Labour maybe.

I think Labour will do better than expected.

I'm glad others feel this way. I decided in the booth to vote for the incumbent because although I have mixed feeling about the party. He is a very good MP.

I think the Green Party will do well this time. Maybe not well enough to get lots of seats, but I think a lot of the old Lib Dem vote will go there.

I feel like literally Anything COULD happen. I'm going to sleep now to get up about 10.30.

We have ordered pizza for midnight, and have enough snacks and fruit in to sink a battleship!

UKIP will get 1 seat maximum. LD will hold far more seats than people think as they are strong in certain areas. Tories will do slightly better but not enough to form a majority

(tory voter)

Please god let UKIP crash and burn and make Nigel Farrage resign and not the other way round where they do better than expected and we end up looking at his smug bastard face spouting bile and hate for the next 5 years!

I decided in the booth as well. My gut agrees with yours OP.

I don't think there's going to be LibDem party after this election.

They'll be destroyed, and reformulate themselves as something else.

We're going to the cinema. Back at 10.30 for a long session in front of the TV. Can't decide which channel to watch.

I agree with you OP.

The only certainty I think is that SNP will wipe the board.

I bloody hope so. Hope it's like the neverendum where those who shouted loudest didn't necessarily get their own way.

I don't think UKIP will do better than labour that would be crazy

I disagree with TravellingLemon-I cant see The Greens doing better than expected at all.

When I was telling in a labour area a good few refused to tell me who they voted for. I think labour has lost out to ukip and those people were too ashamed to let anyone know they voted ukip.

I decided in the booth too, really.

Was much easier decision voting for the local elections (also today) because I know one of the candidates who is standing for the first time and they will be an excellent councillor, and the other person standing for the same party has been councillor for several years already and is very well regarded locally so I used my 2 votes for both of them even though they are not the party I want governing the country. Does that even make sense.

In the general election, would have liked to vote green but voted labour even though I despise Ed M, because that was my only real option for using my vote to TRY to affect a Tory safe seat. I have no doubt my local MP tomorrow will be the same as it was today. Have nothing against him, again he is regarded as doing a good job, but really don't want another term of Tories.

I worry that UKIP will do alarmingly well in some areas.
