no ramping, no spurious info, no "a canvasser told me such and such..." - just what you feel's gonna happen.

mine: labour will lose worse than people are expecting and the tories will get an outright majority as the democrats fail to translate their campaign into votes/seats.

Tory majority Sad having spoken to lots of non political people today they seem to be voting tory,for no other reason than a flick of a coin.If thats reflected everywhere will definitely be a majority in the teens.

I suspect that the Tories will fall just short of an overall majority.

I think that Brown will try and persuade Clegg to join him in a minority government with the promise of a PR referendum as bait.

I don't think Clegg will go for it though and from there it's anybody's guess.

Sadly, Tories with a workable majority, perhaps 335 seats.  Late undecideds have a habit of opposing the sitting Government and self-interest will also come into play.  I'm tempted to back overall majority to cushion the blow of this ghastly outcome but can't bring myself to do so.

A high turn out must be bad for Labour.

I can't see people queuing up to vote for 5 more years of Gordon.

A decent Labour majority helped by a large increase in the number of postal votes.

Con > Lab > LD both in popular vote and number of seats.
Con getting less than 300
Lab and LD forming a coalition.

If Lab get 30% of the vote then Brown almost certain to remain as PM, if Lab get 27% then they might possibly agree to supporting Clegg as PM.
Anything in between and the big problem for Labour is they have no way of ousting Brown within a few days and my guess is he will be too stubborn to resign when Labour are staying in government. I have no idea who acts as Labour leader if Brown does resign.

tories have been polling consistantly around 37%. its not enough and i think they'll fall short, say around 310 seats. Cameron will run a minority government that will survive this year but not next. another election in 2011. no idea what that will bring. too many variables.

Lib Dem 65-

Really worried about tonight. Expect the Conservatives to benefit from larger than anticipated swings.

Small Tory majority. I think there is still a stigma attached to admitting you will vote tory in opinion polls and I think a lot of Lib Dems will, when push comes to shove in the polling station, bottle it.

Conservatives to fall just short of a majority.

I don't think enough people are convinced by Cameron.

I sense the Tories have done well. Maybe enough for a Maj.
Libs have done well too.
Labour poorly.

I've moved some cash over to Tory Maj, so if the buggers win, I'll have a bigger win.

Hoping I'm wrong but surely a Tory majority is the bet. Hope not, so no lose as I'm on.

My gut feeling is I really have no idea, so this must mean it will be a very even share of votes and seats.

Lib Dems to do slightly better than expected.
Labour to take a spanking.
Tories fail to win a majority.

Result - HUNG.

In terms of a bet, freds 7/4 on Libs plus 100 looks ok? I just think Labour will have a disaster.

By:

When: 06 May 10 20:30
No, snookerbacker.

It cannot be ruled out of course, but you can reasonably expect either Lab or Con (probably Con) to get at least 280. LD +100 would then mean LD getting at least 181.

Not a 7/4 shot.

Prices have stayed pretty static. Foreign exchange is pretty nervy with the pound trading down at 1.48, which could be an indication that the markets think it's hung. But let's face it we won't have a clue until the exit poll at about 10pm. Even then it may not be conclusive but the prices will start to move about then.
