49% would vote Lib Dem if they thought they could win!

22 Apr 2010

A new poll has a startling finding. The latest YouGov poll added this question: "How would you vote on May 6 if you thought the Liberal Democrats had a significant chance of winning the election".

The responses: Lib Dem 49%, Conservative 25%, Labour 19%.

On the assumption of uniform national swing, there would be 548 Lib Dem MPs, 41 Labour MPs and just 25 Tories.

This is obviously on the extreme end of the scale. But it's a truth from the history of the Liberal Democrats that about half of the British population WOULD vote for us IF they thought it would get them anywhere.

And of course, the paradox is that if everyone tried it just once, we'd win by a massive landslide.

In Woking we have a great chance to win both the Westminster and Borough elections. So if you were thinking of it, this is the time to do it.
