Tactical voting
Hemel Hempstead
Why vote Labour in Hemel Hempstead?
The Liberal Democrats are strong at local government level in Hemel Hempstead and the other communities of Dacorum district council, but when it comes to general election voting behaviour it is a seat that is contested between Labour and the Conservatives. Even in 2019, Labour polled more than twice as many votes as the LIb Dems. Latest polling shows Labour and the Conservatives are neck and neck in general election voting intention. Neither the Lib Dems nor the Greens are treating Hemel Hempstead as a target seat; there are more serious campaigns for them in other parts of Hertfordshire. The support of people who vote Lib Dem in local elections may be crucial in enabling Labour to defeat the Conservatives here.
