    Tomorrow's the day. All over on Friday morning and two days worth of papers.

    Looks like a sweepstake on who wins will be removed because politics.

    So, how much of a majority will a new government have?
    650 seats in total. Majority is 325+. You can put negative if you think we'll have no overall majority.
    Winner is the closest to largest party's seats over or under 325. Winner takes all.
    Multiple entries allowed.

    Entry:
    Transfer 10 diamonds to "Sweepstakes".
    Post your chosen number below.

    [Edited by Mod to show Entries]
    -5 Jessica
    0 Bookangel
    5 tirial
    16 majority
    20 Tregaron
    40 porridge

    Yes, just like your original one was ten minutes ago. When are you closing entries?

    For clarity Sweepstakes is a holding user. To transfer credits, go to your wallet tab, choose transfer and against name enter Sweepstakes

    0 - no majority, dead on 325 seats.

    Nah, the polls have her on average 5/6 pts ahead at least and they always undercook the Tories.

    100 seats to the good

    I'm not sure any seats are going to the good. They're all going to politicians.

    Two entries:
    80
    -5

    With the Conservatives on -12 and only three seats left in the running, I will concede. Well guessed @jessica .

    Well I wasn't that far off - just not expecting that low-grade Maggie thatcher alike would actually manage to lose seats given the start she had.

    Sheeesh.
