Regional exit polls show predicted Labour defeat in Worsley and Eccles South

At 10pm, exit polls were released, predicting the Conservatives to hold a majority of 368, compared to Labour’s 191, however, in the three Salford constituencies, the results show a different story.

Salford and Eccles predicts a likely Labour hold, with a 99+ chance.

In Blackley and Broughton, it predicts again a likely Labour hold with a 99+ chance.

Across the country the results fall in that:

CON: – 368

LAB: – 191
