** Official MN Election Night Thread - let's hold hands and wait together **

[MmeLindt]

Just starting this so that we can all post our thoughts throughout the day.

My wish for today is that as many people as possible GO OUT AND VOTE.

I cannot vote as I have been living abroad for over 15 years so if anyone wants to vote for me, I would like to vote for Gordon Brown. Voting by MN proxy

nooooo mspotato - he has to go out again!

Am passing virtual Kettle Chips in sympathy.

Ooh 5 minutes to go until polls close

bbc coverage started.

3 minutes 'till the polls close

No results yet, first results are expected at about 10.45 I think.
