ELECTION LATEST: It's so close

Elections in West Dorset are a close fight between the Liberal Democrats and Conservatives

Your vote WILL make the difference between whether our next MP is Lib Dem Edward Morello or a Conservative.

Bar chart showing the 2019 General Election result in West Dorset: Con: 55%, Lib Dem 32%, Labour 9%.

How people vote in closely fought constituencies like here in West Dorset will decide the result of the upcoming General Election.

At the last General Election in West Dorset, Liberal Democrats were in second place to the Conservatives. Just a handful of votes could decide which of them wins this time.

Every vote will make a difference between a Conservative or Lib Dem win here.

Labour can't beat the Tories in West Dorset.

Lib Dem or Conservative here

There are two choices. Either we will get a Conservative MP - and the out of touch government will continue to take our part of Dorset for granted, or we will get a Lib Dem MP in Edward Morello and West Dorset will have helped bring down this government.

No other result is possible here.

A Labour or Green vote will help the Conservatives win

A vote for third-place Labour here risks letting West Dorset's Conservative MP sneak a win and help this government cling to power.

Liberal Democrats won 14 council seats at this year's local elections, and won more votes than any other party.

Labour didn't win any council seats at the local elections, the Green Party only won one. They just can't beat the Conservatives here.
