"How many constituencies are there in the UK?
There are 646 seats up for grabs in 2005. The number fluctuates with electoral boundary changes and has been reduced from the 659 in the current Parliament but cutting the number of Scottish seats, to reflect devolution. In the 1992 Parliament there were 651 constituencies."

Ahhh thats what I thought...
Thanks for the clarification.
Don Seer:
first seat results in.. just went to labour as expected but by a lower majority..
that seat had a "monster raving loony party" candidate.. wish we had them down here :D
Don Seer:
i'm off to bed now....
general pattern across the country seems to suggest that lib dems may take a bunch of senior tory seats as they've put effort into campaigning against high profile, but vunerable conservative MPs
they are saying all over that people have been voting lib dem out of protest in safe labour seats.. but that labour are keeping those.. and that in other seats the lib dems have been concentrating on decapitating the conservatives... which is how i voted against the tories..
Don Seer:
the pattern seems have held mostly...
my town went from conservative to lib dem.. but the another closeby seat went the other way..
the guy that runs the www.tdbc.info site should be happy...
he had vans dotted all over town with huge billboards dissing the councillors here
