YESSSSSS! Come on Conservatives!

[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]

exit polls

lib dems look to have EPICALLY failed <3

[Harry!]

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

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

Its 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 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.

[Gemmer-x]

seems weird that lib dems have so few seats hmm

[ILoveTRW]

what is the target that conservatives need to get a majority?

[Callum]

Lib Dems surely have more seats than 59

A prediction of what is likely to happen?.

Please not another couple of years with Gordon Brown as PM.

[Callum]

I love ITV's animations

[Patrick]

Im watching this on ITV now, can someone tell me what that exit poll means?

Why is it called 'Exit' ?

Also is it an official poll or just rough guesses of who will win?

[Spike]

The general opinion from what i'm seeing, hearing and reading is major doubts over this exit poll. Such doubts makes the rest of the night that much more interesting

Conservatives are getting a little cocky now, right?
