Tactical voting isn’t important

• In 2019, Liberal Democrat voters appeared less willing to cast their vote for Labour candidates than in 2017, resulting in a loss of several marginal seats for Labour
• Attempts to persuade people to vote tactically often fail - the SNP won handsomely in Scotland in 2015 despite attempts by opposition parties to unite behind the same pro-union candidates
• Parties seldom issue formal advice to voters on voting tactically
