General Election live blog

Will appear here from 10pm. Live from Ponds Forge. 10:50 - Blogger being slow, updates will be more frequent on twitter @shefvotes. Ballot box contents being checked atm and local ballots being seperated. 01:20 - Still having issues updating blogger, nothing concrete to report from any seat, just avoided being in shot behind Mr Blunkett. 01:30 - Only other laptop I have seen not in the hands of a media type is being used by the lib dems by the poweraid machine. 02:16 - No official word but the rumour mill says Sheffield counts running ~2 hours late, have seen other parties with laptops now though 02:20 - Again huge apologies for my blogging technology letting me down somewhat, twitter is where it is at. 03:14 - some typos creeping into tweets, all 6 counts still seem far off 03:51 - Difficult to stay out of camera shot now Nick Clegg is here, he made almost strait for Paul Scriven

Are you in a position to (if not weigh in on, then) shed some light on the practicalities, traditions and possible resolutions of the reports of voters being turned away at 10pm?
