Over to you, voters. Tactical voting, in part, explains why sane, caring people can end up voting for things they'd never normally support in a million years. And we call that democracy. The worst thing I ever heard a voter say was "I'm not voting for them, because they won't win". An absolute travesty. That’s just false, isn’t it. We have a system that means that it most certainly doesn’t work like that. Yes, if we had proportional representation it would work, but we haven’t.

But no amount of tactical voting gives you what you want either, it just means you might avoid what you want the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
