The long Sunday night waiting for the PE data
(by Pietro Guastamacchia) – Exit polls, estimates and projections: on Sunday evening the European Chamber is preparing to experience the long night of the European elections, when from the data coming from the 27 countries we will begin to understand what face the European Parliament of the 10th legislature will have.
The national exit polls will be published by each member state after the polls close and will converge in the large press room set up in the Brussels hemicycle where more than a thousand journalists from 90 countries are expected. The flow, according to the timetable announced by the European Chamber, will start at 6.15pm with data from Austria, Cyprus, Germany, Greece, Malta and Holland.

The exit polls on the elections in Bulgaria and Croatia are expected at 7.15pm, while those from Denmark, France and Spain will arrive after 8pm. To have the very first estimate on the composition of the new hemicycle we will have to wait until 8.30pm, when however the polls in Italy will still be open. This first snapshot of the result of the European elections, according to the indications provided by the EP himself, will be created using the exit polls from 11 countries and, for the remaining 16 countries, from the polls carried out before the vote.
At around 9.30 pm the exit polls from Poland, Portugal, Romania and Sweden should then be announced and at 11.15-11.30 pm we should finally have a first slightly more reliable projection of the results, although still subject to changes, as it is based on 24 provisional results, two exit polls (for Italy and Poland) and a pre-election poll (Belgium). A new composition of the chamber based on 25 provisional results and 2 exit polls should therefore be released shortly after midnight on Sunday. The flow of data should end around 1am on Monday, when Parliament services hope to be able to publish the distribution of the 720 seats of the new EP through a projection based on the provisional data that will have been collected from the 27 in time useful. The electoral marathon will also be marked by speeches from representatives of the main European political groups. T
Among the first to speak there should be the group leader of the EPP, Manfred Weber, expected at the European Chamber immediately after the first screenings, while for the socialists, shortly after Weber, the vice-president of the group, the Portuguese Pedro Marques, will speak. The President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen will follow the flow of results from the Brussels headquarters of the EPP and she could also appear in the press room of the European Parliament if and when there are more consolidated results.
