I could possibly do election night if that's what most of us want to go for
(assuming Ed is willing to let us take over Newspeak House for the whole
night, and bearing in mind it's likely to be the small hours before there's
much 'work' to do).

My vote (haha) would be for Election Night itself, and Newspeak House is
fine with me. I would definitely attend.

Is the feeling that the community would rather do
an election night event
than one on the 26/27th? I'm happy to facilitate either and I'm sure we
could use Newspeak House.

Yes, I'm sure that's the right kind of solution for on the day and most
of the potential use cases.
I'd imagine that all of the data gathered would be within scope for
Wikidata, though I'm not sure whether Wikidata yet has good structures to
record constituency-level election data. It would be great if it did.
