And how do we think it'll end up this time tomorrow?

I voted in but have a feeling it'll be very close, leaving a lot of very disgruntled people. My mum is in, and tells me she's never met anyone who voted in back in 1975... ;)

If you want an idea of the outcome don't look at the polls, look at the betting odds. Ladbrokes are currently offer 1/7 Remain and 9/2 Leave. And if you look at their percentage vote odds they believe the Remain vote will be between 50% and 55%. I think it will be between 54% - 56% remain.

As I wrote this the odds have shorten on the 50-55% and also the 55-60% :)

I think it will be 55-60% remain, and I reckon its going to be a pretty high turnout

Whichever way it goes, we will get months and months of people demanding a re-vote and moaning about it, same as the Scottish referendum I imagine...

Hmm, DDK and current affairs?

It is all a lot of nonsense. Very, very few of the electorate are able to make an informed decision, especially as our sources of information are so inaccurate and biased, even the idea that the issue is as simple as a binary 'yes/no' decision is laughable. There are so many unknowable future variables.

And then, if the decision is based on a 49:51 vote, surely that isnt democracy, that's coin flipping.

Just my 0.01 Euro.

Hypocritically, yes I did vote, last week.

Me and Mine voted IN 30 mins ago.

Mrs H went shopping this morning and a straw pole was being done by one of the cashiers.

He said the overwhelming vote was OUT, but nearly everyone in there was over 90.

Tomorrow will be interesting.

IN = business as usual politically, Money market in a storm.

OUT = Squabbles for the PM job, so Borris will be our saviour and can manage the Nations expectations of 1,000,000 more nurses and Docs for the NHS next week. Money market in a thunder storm.

Yup I was there at 7.10, I'm Out but I suspect the result will be In.

Liz Hurley offering to drop the cushion if the result is Leave was not a factor.

I disagree with this on the grounds that bookie's odds are not statistical - i.e. mathematical - probabilities. The statistical odds in this case should add up to one - i.e. the fact that there will be a result, whether it's yes, no or a draw, is a certainty therefore the total of all the probabilities will add up to 1. If however you total the bookies odds (for any event) the total is always more than one - the difference is how the bookie makes his living.

If you're a mathematician and you disagree - and you have a proof ! - feel free to put me right.
