How did they get 100.1%? Rounding off I presume. What does the 63.1% for Labour mean? Is it from a Poll, money on, last election or what? I thought it was one of the key marginals. Please update me.
Why would Tory Blair be surprised at winning Hove?
Out of our three seats Hove is probably the Banker for Labour!
If you went back to the 80's and said that people would have had you sectioned. just shows how demographics change.
LABOUR for me.
Why would Tory Blair be surprised at winning Hove?
2 postal votes gone in today for Labour from here. Mile Oak and Portslade have always been staunch Labour so it really won't be much of a surprise if Kyle wins.
But Blair stood as a colour blind Tory.Well, up to 97 it had been a safe Tory seat from it's creation in 1950. It was a massive swing to Labour from their 24.5% showing in 92, to winning it with 44.6% in 97.
