If the votes are in a box, how can there be rumours? surely no one knows as they are in a box?

Its a rumour from the exit poll. This is wide scale poll conducted by Sky News, ITV News and the BBC which asks a random selection of people who they voted for after they exit the polling station.
It usually gives an indication on the way the results will go but with the nature of this election the accuracy might not be so spot on

YESSSSSS! Come on Conservatives!

[Callum]

ITV best coverage imo

[Spike]

I'm not trusting that exit poll. The Lib Dems down in seats just doesn't sound right to me. I do expect the Conservatives to be the largest party though

[Shaun]

lib dems look to have EPICALLY failed <3

Call me stupid but what is a 'exit poll'.

Anyway I am glad that Conservatives are in lead so far.

It can be very accurate (1997) or very wrong (1992) with the nature of this election and that Lib Dem projection I would guess that it isn't very accurate. its too close to call.
