Results will go up on the main page late afternoon, with full stats early evening. They will be seen in the comments section at the bottom of the main page.

The portmanteau “Brexit” was coined to describe the 2016 United Kingdom referendum in which they voted to leave the European Union by a percentage of 52% to 48%. In the same fashion that “Grexit” was used to describe the possible Greek exit from the Euro, Brexit merged “Britain” and “exit”.
