Probably does, but there will also be elements of allowing a smoother transition from a change of government.
If it was relatively unknown, that would surely create greater uncertainty right up to the day.

And this is assuming that the parties would still do there internal polling so they know the mood of the people.

What I think these polls don't clearly show, is the amount of undecided voters, and if 2/3s of them feel a particular direction, it could have a big affect on the outcome
