Data last calculated 30th June 2024
We've manually reviewed this constituency and recommend voting SNP because:
- The SNP were the biggest progressive party by far in 2019.
- The polls are neck-and-neck between the SNP and Labour. Some polls are showing Labour ahead of the SNP, others are showing the reverse. On average, both parties are on ~27%.
- Based on the very strong historical SNP performance here, we think the SNP are the tactical vote.
