Wanted: Vote swapper!
Is there anyone here living in a libdem-tory marginal who intends to vote labour? I'm looking for someone to vote LD for me where it won't let the conservatives in, in exchange for me voting labour in a close labour-torie contest. Wishful thinking, perhaps, but worth asking.

1. I wish I could help
But the LibDems are a distant third place in my constituency.

3. Voting Lib Dem
I've voted Labour all my life in this seat as has my dad, and its a Tory seat. Lib dems are a few thousand behind but may have an outside chance.

My whole family is voting lib dem this time

5. If you want to vote lib dem then vote lib dem
Stuff tactical voting if everyone who wanted to vote for the third party did, then it would expose the injustices in our voting system and bring constant pressure throughout the next parliament to change to PR. Another Labour 'promise'.

Then we'd all be free to vote for the party which represented our views. Not the least worst
