I'm with Al on this. Not only would it be funny but it is a simple case of natural selection. If a party's supporters are too dumb to vote for that party I am quite happy for their views to be misrepresented.

Truth lies in between
Mike Smithson @msmithsonpb ComRes polls EP2014 poll for r@itvnews: Con 20%, Lab 27%, LD 7%, UKIP 33%, Greens 6%, Others 7% - based on all certain to vote
Mike Smithson @msmithsonpb LAB has 3% EP2014 lead with ComRes EP2014 for ITV NEWS based on all expressing voting intention

How I would love this to be true
Tom Newton Dunn @tnewtondunn EXCL: YouGov/Sun poll tonight - Labour lead in euro elections as UKIP slips, + Libs down to 5th. LAB 28%, UKIP 24%, CON 21%, GRN 12%, LD 10%

I hadn't believed it until today but I'm now almost convinced that the Lib Dems will end up with only one or two MEPs in the SE, SW or London. A few more polls like that and I'll be convinced.

Yougov have UKIP 4% ahead among those who are certain to vote. UKIP 29%, Lab 25%, Con 19%. Not that different from Com Res, on a like for like basis.
It comes down to whether a harsh turnout filter gives the most accurate result, in a low turnout election.

if you go for filters I think better than 100% is 75% as a measure.

The trouble with filters is that many people aren't great at accurately assessing their likelihood to vote.

This election has become UKIPs to lose and UKIP voters will be more motivated to get out and vote on Thursday.
Clegg and lib dems will be preparing for the disaster on Thursday and may want to call time on the coalition.

But what is 'a UKIP voter', exactly?

Apparently a new Survation Poll: UKIP 32 LAB 27 CON 23 LD 9 GRN 4 oth 7
I think this poll would probably see at least 3 LDs retain seats and no greens... unlike the earlier polls...

But only if that's uniform across the whole UK. Green could, for example, get 40% in South-West and 1% everywhere else which would give a UK-wide vote of 4.9% (ish).

The regional sub samples in this poll are small and strange . Lib Dems would win seats in London , North East and Wales , probably in the South East but not in South West .

No, No, No There is nothing strange about the regional sub samples. They are simply regional sub samples and as such cannot be treated seriously.
