Tactical voting
Lewes
Our tactical voting recommendation in Lewes:
Vote Lib Dem
Why vote Lib Dem in Lewes?
Lewes was held by the Lib Dems from 1997 to 2015, and they came close to the Conservatives in 2019, making it a key target. While the Greens perform well locally, this does not translate directly into general election voting and the polls are not picking up a large Green vote in Lewes. Current polls show the Lib Dems leading comfortably over the Conservatives, whose support has dropped. Labour and Reform UK have gained ground, but most Labour votes are expected to shift to the Lib Dems during the campaign.
