Is a vote for Labour wasted vote ?

 

Now that Labour are trailing in third place, some political commentators

think that a vote for Labour could be a wasted vote.

 

They believe that Labour cannot win and "there will be a massive

swing from Labour supporters to Nick Clegg and the Liberal Democrats

because traditional Labour supporters know that Brown cannot win and

they cannot stand the thought of those Tory Toffs being back in power."

A vote for Labour isn't a wasted vote, however it could be seen that way in constituencies such as Hallam.

 

On a serious note, I don't think people should speculate on the results of the election and let that sway their vote. You should go to the polling station, vote for the party that best represents your views and then see how it all pans out.

 

In terms of a swing - the majority of the country in 2005 didn't vote - meaning that if the whole country (unlikely) or even 75% of the electorate was to get off their arses and actually vote, anything could happen.
