Gavin Robinson tops mini exit poll at sample polling station in East Belfast
The survey was carried out in Elmgrove Primary school, where this newspaper has carried out polls in the three previous general elections (as well as in the last two assembly elections).
The polling station tends to vote closely to the constituency as a whole, and so could be described as a ‘bell weather’ location — one that gives an indication of voting trends in a wider area — which is why we keep returning there.
