What REALLY happens on polling day?

<p><br /></p><p>They think it’s all over… it is now! No really, that’s the actual line from the Conservative party as they send out the hardest worker of this campaign, Mel Stride, to concede a full 24 hours before voters go to the polls. Ed Balls and George Osborne question whether the move will just serve to put even more potential Tory voters off.</p><br /><p>The winner might be considered a foregone conclusion at this stage - but the details are far from it, and Ed’s been swotting up on the ones to watch for early indications. If you’re planning an all-nighter, grab your popcorn and make some notes - you don’t want to be without the Balls election 2024 primer.&nbsp;</p><br /><p>And, if you’ve ever wondered what candidates will be doing for the next 48 hours, Ed and George pull back the curtain on the highs and lows of a life-changing night.&nbsp;</p><br /><p>Credit to Greg Birks for ‘I’m Just Ed’.</p><br /><p>To celebrate the election, we’ll be exclusively answering subscriber questions in our post-result special on Monday 8th July.
