Down to the wire

So, the Premiership goes to the last matches of the season. Will it be Chelsea or Manchester United who win the title?

The General Election looks very close. Labour looks doomed, but will the Conservatives gain an overall majority? Some pundits are arguing that the momentum is with the Tories and that, come election day, the Labour vote will disintegrate and many voters will choose the Tories rather than the Liberal Dozycrats to avoid a hung parliament.

One opinion poll suggests that over 50% of the electorate do not want a hung parliament. All to play for in the next three days, but what should be noted is that many voters have already made their decision and used a postal ballot. No matter what happens in the next few days, they cannot change their minds. The fact that so many people now use postal ballots is one of the imponderables in trying to forecast the result of this election.
