Can we talk about Tactical Voting Sites & being very careful to which you give your data.

I am seeing several, when checked, do not disclose who they are, what their own political biases- connections, NO proper GDPR notices, qualifications, experience.

Do you really know?
2/.
💥How do you know it is not linked to a particular political party?
💥How can you be sure it will actually give you good advice?
💥What will they do with your data? What cookies are used.
💥it would be a great way to divert a vote to a particular party that suits them...
3/. I have seen maybe 3 now that have made me check for data processing and controlling information.

None had proper GDPR and privacy notices.

This is the latest.

I cannot tell who they are.

Is “Get the Tories out” a sign that it is run by Labour supporters?
3/
💥 If it is, should not they be very transparent about it?
💥 Their methodology (see references to 2017 election results, where there was tactical,voting in a way many have no wish to repeat) doesn’t seem particularly up to date or professional.
💥What are their qualifications
4/

💥What experience do they have in complex stats analysis?
💥What experience have they with MRP analysis (Eg Focaldata are expert in this sophisticated form of analysis
💥Where is their privacy and data processing/controlling policy?
💥They even have a DONATE section
5/

💥What is done with your data?

💥💥💥💥 Why are you using them at all when you can use professionally run tactical voting sites, based on up to date large scale polling data and MRP analysis. NOT party political. Just remain💥💥💥💥

7/. @thatginamiller is also likely to be using professional pollsters and statisticians. She will be transparent about who is doing the work and methodology.

If she does I would be happy to use that too. I shall tweet it out when I see it.

Compare results!
Just now I have seen this drop into my feed.

Why my feed? I had not long before clicked on their site. Then tweeted about it.

💥💥💥💥💥I would not contemplate using it.

The tweeter location is Manhattan in the profile.
