And now we are up to 4 #TacticalVoting sites for #GE19

As before my recommendation is still
🚨 TREAT WITH UTMOST CARE 🚨
This thread tests the sites with 2 London marginals - Wimbledon and Kensington

The postcodes I am using for the tests are for stations in each constituency - SW19 7NL for Wimbledon, SW7 2NA for Kensington
Here's more info about each constituency, and links to the results in 2017

Wimbledon (currently Tory Stephen Hammond)

Kensington (currently Labour @emmadentcoad)

SITE 1
The new site just launched is @thatginamiller using @ElectCalculus data - remainunited.org

It suggests
Wimbledon - no recommendation
Kensington - Labour 🌹
SITE 2
From @BestForBritain @pimlicat their Get Voting site uses a MRP method - getvoting.org

It suggests
Wimbledon - Lib Dem 🔶
Kensington - Lib Dem 🔶
SITE 3
From the @votetools collective, their Tactical Vote site draws heavily on 2017 voting data - tactical.vote

It suggests
Wimbledon - Labour 🌹
Kensington - Labour 🌹
SITE 4
@tacticalvote by @chickabiddybex and others, using some data from @democlub - tacticalvote.co.uk

It suggests
Wimbledon - too early to make a recommendation
Kensington - Labour 🌹
No doubt backers of the respective sites will reply to this thread with "our method is better!" "no, they make the wrong calls based on the data" etc. - feel free to reply in that way.
For the moment I am making no judgment about which of these sites works best, but will only say this:

⚠️ tactical voting works best if everyone is voting tactically the same way ⚠️

For the moment that seems to be miles off. So treat these tools carefully for now!
