LONDON, May 6 (Xinhua)-- A major exit poll commissioned by the BBC, ITV News and Sky News on Thursday night projected that Britain's Conservative Party won but just missed an overall majority.
The exit poll has been revised, but the outcome remains the same -- a hung parliament.
The revised poll projected the Conservatives would win 305 seats in the 650-seat parliament, ahead of Labor with 255. The Liberal Democrats were projected in third place with 61 seats. Small parties got 29 seats.
