Comment on Weekly General Election Poll Results by David.

You are talking about the alternative vote system which if Labour stay in power is pledging to give us a referendum on.

So if you want the option to rank the candidates, 1,2,3 etc… you’d vote Labour not Tories. that being said if the Lib Dems gained power they’d be looking at bringing in proportional representation most likely.

Polls have switched today to give the Lib Dems more support, would be interesting to see what would happen if the Lib Dems actually won the general election (or was the party with most MPs in a coalition government) would they still change the voting system?

Like you I vote tactically, though I vote to keep the Tories out. In the alternative vote system I’d vote Lib Dems 1, Labour 2 as it is I vote Labour as I live in a Tory controlled seat with Labour in second place and the Lib Dems no hope of winning.
