So, who is voting for who?



I think i have listed them all but shout if i have missed any.

This will be interesting

Early days yet, but Restore has some online buzz, but no votes as yet in this poll.

A sign of things to come in the elections?

[scenario8]

Do we mean the local elections?

(And edit the word Independent if that’s possible. Thanks).

[119]

Yes and done!

[Russet Grange]

Restore. All day, every day.

[Earthdweller]

I've got a choice of

Cooperative party
Reform
Tory
Green

In my ward

The borough council is labour and won't ever be anything else, these elections aren't going to change anything locally due to who is up this time

The only decent councillor in the town is actually a Labour one, but he's not up and tbf voting for him, if he were, would seem an endorsement of Starmer

Reform .. if they managed to get a candidate to stand. Tories always win in my ward though.

[Jamescrs]

Whoever is most likely to get our local conservative candidate out because he’s constantly elected for years and does naff all for the area.

But gets voted in because of the traditional conservative voters in the area, they could put Harold shipman as a candidate and the same people would still vote for him.

Voting reform is absolutely bonkers.

Isn't voting for any of them bonkers?

Anybody want to pick one for me ? https://whocanivotefor.co.uk/elections/sp.c.mid-fi...
This poll could do with a NOTA option.

Voting Green is bonkers. In fact that's worse than voting Labour frankly.

I dont have any Restore candidate in my area. My council is LibDem

And the local demographic has "changed" significantly since Covid.

How will voting reform change your local demographic? Round them up and house them in camps?

Why's that then?

Clearly a credable alternative to lab/con going by polling

back in the day with the likes of the Monster Raving Loony party, Screaming Lord Sutch and so on at least it was obvious. Now it's pretty much all of them. In fact if SLS hadn't passed I'd honesly consider him right now. Probably still would if someone would nominate him.

Why is it?

Restore aren't standing in May, so adding Restore's votes to Reform looks like 46%.

For PH that's quite impressive.

Because that's what they think they should say so they can have friends.

In Brexit you'd be forgiven for thinking that half the country were in fact racists.


Sadly so many people didn't just realise you could vote for who YOU wanted to vote for, and then tell other people what they wanted to hear, or better still, tell them to mind their own fking business, especially if they're the kind of tt who'll piss you off over the answer you give rather than just respect your position.
