I've given you my answer . I vote tactically because of the voting syyem that we have. Different people have different reasons for voting the way that they do. My prority is how  I can best express my anti-Tory vote. And from my point of view that isn't by voting for the SDA candidate (or any other for that matter).

@Lynne I asked you to tell us why we should vote for Lib Dem Wrigley other than the fact he's not Tory Anne-Marie Morris, i.e. other than tactical voting reasons whether you think that's valid or not. I still await your answer.

My valid reason for tactically voting Lib Dem is that I think he stands more chance of beating AMM than the Labour candidate. Voting tactically is not nonsense. It makes non-sense not to do so. And I would vote Green or Labour  tactically ( as appropriate) in any other constituency for the same  reason.

@Lynne I will be voting SDA, because government at any level cannot function in the interests of the people on corrupt foundations. It is that simple. And yes I advocate that others vote for the SDA, but I also offer valid reasons for doing so. I haven't told anyone to vote for the SDA. I haven't just issued an instruction without offering a sound argument for doing so, unlike your post. ...

So if you aren't advocating that people should vote SDA then why do you keep going on and on and on about them and posting their candidate's election address.? If you didn't want people to vote SDA then you wouldn't be doing that, would you? PS I see that the SDA candidate openly admits that "Labour isn't putting up a fight  here".

@Lynne I have made people aware that the SDA exists. I haven't told anyone who to vote for, unlike you in this thread. Why should anyone listen to you after 5 years of Lib Dem local government which puts them firmly in the toxic category along with Morris and the Tories. You can't even acknowledge the Lib Dem's awful record in local government or the fact the South Devon Alliabce has been the ...

And your telling peole to vote SDA time and time again isn't also wearing thin?

yet another poll predicting a Labour win. For evey poll Wrigley and his Lib Dem fan club produce there are plenty more predicting a Labour win or Tory hold. None include the South Devon Alliance. They do put 'Other' referring to all parties at around 1%. https://www.survation.com/mrp-update-first-mrp-since-farages-return/ If the turnout is around 72% that's is 54000 plus ...

@Lynne Telling people to vote Lib Dem to stop the Tories time and time again is really wearing thin, because of you're absolute refusal to acknowledge on any level that your cherished candidate Wrigley has an awful record in local government and is widely considered the opposite of a liberal and a democrat; illiberal and undemocratic. Why should anyone listen to or believe the same old 'We're ...

I do not take it for granted AT  ALL that the Labour Party will have a massive majority. It could turn out to be another 1997 on the other hand it could be another 1992. That is why tactical voting is needed if you don't want another 5 years of Tory government.
