The strength of the Lib Dems certainly has made this election much more interesting. To nick a phrase from South Park, it no longer feels like we're forced to choose between a douchebag and a turd sandwich.
It could also introduce an unknown factor into the results: Young people vote in low numbers and tend to vote Lib Dem (or vote tactically). If there's a genuine belief the Lib Dems could gain power, it could inspire a huge turnout (and completely mess up the polls)

Voting is about to end! Votes cast after 10pm will not be counted but may still be charged

I can't get my head around tactical voting, not voting for the party you want to win, but voting for someone else to keep another party out, defeats the whole object.
Does that mean Lib Dems councillors/MPs will be massacred because their supporters will be voting Labour to keep the Torys from winnng? sounds like cutting of your nose to spite your face or something like that.....
Night All!

I go to bed tonight praying that the Lib Dems and Labour can form a coalition. Not that Labour have done a great job over 13 years in government (far from it), but god save us if the Conservatives get into power.
I can't stand Cameron and his 'metropolitan man' Tony Blair-esque charisma and charm. Giving more power to the people. Pfff. Lame excuse airy-fairy idea which in my opinion is more of a cop-out of any good ideas of what a serving government should do. Too much of a risk in our economic situation.
Pray, pray hard.

Damn, I'm scared that every result is bad. I also agree that Cameron is a smug twat but I'd take him as a leader over Brown any day. I couldn't bring myself to vote for him though as I hate their whole party!
Exit polls suggest Tories haven't got a majority. First actual result is in and somehow Labour got twice as many votes as anyone else, WTF!?!
