Polling stations closed 40 minutes ago.  Exit [NB !] polls a bit varied: Syriza 35.5 - 39.5%, ND 23 - 27%; The River and GD equal third on 6.4 - 8%.

So it looks like a big victory for Syriza between 8 and 16% over ND.  Quite remarkable.  One poll even gives Syriza potentially 158 seats.

A very ancient and p*ssed off Greek, I would say.

Official estimates give Syriza 36.5% of the vote and 149-151 seats.  Samaras looks about to concede defeat.

All over now bar the shouting - of which I suspect there will be a great deal while the coalition partner gets sorted out.  Official result now giving Syriza 36% and 149 seats.
