Tactical voting
Newark
Our tactical voting recommendation in Newark:
Vote Labour
Why vote Labour in Newark?
Newark was a Labour seat in 1997 but has generally been Conservative. The Tories had a large majority here at the 2019 election. However, polling indicates that there is a real contest for the Newark constituency between the Conservatives and Labour. The party lead has fluctuated over recent months but the latest findings show Labour with a clear lead, helped by the Conservatives’ loss of votes to Reform UK. If Lib Dem and Green voters vote tactically for Labour, there is a chance to defeat both right-wing parties in Newark.
