UK 2024 Election Exit Polls: Starmer’s Labour Anticipated To Win With 410 Seats

Polling has concluded in the 2024 UK Elections, and exit polls indicate that the UK Labour Party, led by Keir Starmer, is set to end the Tories’ 14-year rule.

Starmer is likely to become the next UK Prime Minister, succeeding Rishi Sunak, the first prime minister of color and of South Asian descent. The UK Reform Party also made some gains in the elections.

Exit polls predict that Starmer and his party will win 410 seats in the 650-seat parliament, while Sunak’s UK Conservative Party is expected to secure only 131 seats. Nigel Farage’s right-wing populist Reform UK is projected to win 13 seats, and the centrist Liberal Democrats are forecasted to capture 61 seats.

Starmer expressed gratitude to those who campaigned for the party prior to the release of the exit poll.

“To everyone who has campaigned for Labour in this election, to everyone who voted for us and put their trust in our changed Labour Party – thank you,” he wrote on X.
