Donald Trump is now the oldest nominee for US President from a major party ever. The fact that he is older than Biden in 2020, and has had senior moments, will now be an electoral liability. |

Well spotted Foggy.
I was using data from the 2024 GE Excel supersheet that someone posted elsewhere on here.
It seems the originator transposed the Sutton Coldfield & Sutton & Cheam seats!

Sutton Coldfield was, in fact, arguably one of the worst LibDem results anywhere.

It's almost as if they did it deliberately : carefully arranging their votes geographically to make sure that they defeated, by only small margins, a number of Independent and WPB and other candidates. |

I think what the list also emphasises is how a combination of (a) low turnout and (b) a slightly wider spread of votes beyond the "big 2" parties, has meant that quite a number of seats under FPTP can now be won with a shockingly low number of votes.

I think that it’s more to do with directing resources to where they are needed but only sufficient to win the seat concerned. |
