I voted - exit poll

[Whu]

Our final election poll. The exit poll.
When you have voted please select who.
Thanks to everyone who has participated.

Wins the thread lol

Nearly 50% have voted Labour. It is very similar to the predictions.

Lib dem. Tactical vote

Lib Dem

Labour. My constituency was once described as one where the Tories could send a donkey and it would get in. Supposedly they’re now neck and neck with Labour and it’s too close to call.

Labour - simply to help ensure the Tories lose

I think at least 3/4 voters in my house voted Labour. 3 declared, one mystery, who would either have voted Labour or Green.

1.5 hours left.
3.7k votes here - can we make it to 5k by 10pm I wonder.
Impatiently waiting the real exit poll now.

I did the same, explained the process in simple terms and solemnly went together with 4 year old DS. I actually felt quite emotional watching him put my ballot into the box, he was just a few months old last time so it's his first real experience of democracy in action.

Afterwards on the way to school he asked "Do you think we will win?" I explain that I certainly hope that the person I voted for will win, but we have to wait and see, whoever has the most votes will win. DS's follow up: "and if you get the most votes and win, can I be prime minister too or just you?"

That's right, he thought the X on the paper is as me casually putting myself forward to run the country, as you do on a Thursday school run! So obviously my explanation was no where near as good as I'd given myself credit for haha.

Plaid Cymru

Looking at the results from this poll so far, Seems like a fair reflection of what may happen, I have a sneaky feeling Lib Dems will be the opposition , lots of friends who usually vote Tory couldn't face voting for Farage as protest and went to Lib Dem, more than I ever remember .

Exactly what we have done.

What do you think of Reform wanting to scrap the Equalities Act? Do you think that's would be good for women? Do you know what the consequences would be?

Labour in government with the Libdems in opposition and the right wing marginalised would be great! Can't afford to get my hopes up too much though!

Tactical Labour vote, I normally vote Green.

Me Reform
DH Tories

Tactical Lib Dem. Would love to have voted Labour but they have no chance here.

Tactical Lib Dem vote here. I probably would have voted labour but they don’t stand a chance here (conservatives always win).

i detest him, he’s my poor parents MP. Odious, bigoted bully…and not smart either

1 Labour, 1 Lib Dem and 1 Green.

We're a new constituency, normally Tory (South East) and hoping we'll finally get change of colour. Would normally vote LD and was torn but got swayed by the fact the labour candidate is the only one who lives here and seems very committed.

Labour

LABOUR ... we have a very, very safe LABOUR seat where I am in West London.

Bring it on!

3 Labour

Labour

Labour. Although God knows why. If I had to put my hand on the Bible I couldn’t say I think things are going to be much better under Labour.
I just can’t take to that Kier Starmer. He doesn’t to have any back bone or spirit. I know this was back in the olden days but during that lock down debate back in March 2020 he had he’s head so far up Boris Johnson’s butt. It was impossible to tell where Kier finishes and Boris starts.
All that said though There’s no way morally I could vote for Tories even if wanted to which I don’t.
However let’s not knock him before he’s had a chance. He may turn out to be the PM ever.
