Tory vote increased 10%, yet in neighbouring Ettrick etc it didn't increase at all. I like to think it was a personal vote against her. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's really interesting there is the Greens coming from nowhere to 5.8%. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are even worse things in life than being a soft Tory. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like to think it was a personal vote against her. Tactical voting. Labour down 14% with both Tory and SNP vote shares up. It seems like about half the seats the SNP are losing are showing large amounts of tactical voting. Those Lib Dem seats with Cole-Hamilton and Rennie have other yoon parties evapourating despite their national vote share being only down by half a percent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Lambies Doos Posted May 7, 2021 Author Share Posted May 7, 2021 If turnout has gone up and its cause SNP have got vote out does that not mean they have more chance of list seats if their constituency majorities have increased? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorge Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Tactical unionist voting clearly working where there's an obvious choice (Ed West, NE Fife), but possibly failing in the likes of Ed Central and Eastwood. Fairly confident now that Salmond and Galloway are utter toast. Only question now is which number the SNP get between 63 and 66 IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingscot Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 I'm kind of interested to see how Patrick Harvie does in Glasgow Kelvin. I don't think he'll get enough support to win, but be interesting to see if he closes the majority of the SNP. Greens seem to have a lot of support in Glasgow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
