Gina Miller plans 'biggest tactical voting effort in UK history' ahead of snap election | The Independent
The election could be interesting at least in some constituencies. Voting tactically looks like the name of the game.

If TM ends up with a 17 or even 20 something seat majority, that will be a highly amusing outcome.

Originally posted by Mordac View PostForgive me, but how is that going to work better than "everyone who wants to give TM a kicking just voting for someone else"? Unless it involves a co-ordinated approach to voting, e.g. all vote LibDem (there's no point in anyone saying "all vote Labour" because everyone will just laugh at you) it doesn't seem to achieve much. Is there a rationale to this or is it just some flumpty-wumpty on Twitter who wants their 15 mins?
The idea was is you wanted to vote Green and the largest opposition party in your constituency was Lib Dem, then you would look for someone in say Brighton who wanted to vote Lib Dem. They would then vote Green and you would vote Lib Dem. That way both your votes would be more likely to count and you would help avoid getting in someone for parties you hate.
The current voting system for GE means about 50% of votes are wasted."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment

Could make the difference between a big and small majority.
It basically means the conservatives facing off to a 35% opposition rather than 25% if tactical voting takes off. A small swing to against the Tories could wallop their "landslide" majority.I'm alright JackComment
