OK, so it had to be done (or @syrpis prompted it!)

Using the #BrexitDiagram tech to make a #TacticalVoteDiagram!

If you want to vote tactically at #GE2019 this is what you need to do!
Note that this is done independently by me - it is not associated with any tactical voting site or recommendation!

As ever with my diagrams feedback is most welcome!

(But if your reaction to tactical voting is 🤬 then save your rant for some other time)
As ever all of this is designed for sharing and re-using!

High res PNG of this:

Scaleable PDF:

And really, ALL the #GE2019 #tacticalvoting sites have deficiencies.

@BestForBritain leans towards the Lib Dems, because its model makes more use of polling and recent elections, and less use of General Elections
@peoplesvote_uk has no transparency whatsoever, so we have no idea how it even works really

@remainutd is probably the best of the bunch, but updates its data and does not tell us how or what changed
@votetools leans in my view too heavily on the results of the 2017 General Election, and hence makes some wrong calls - but they at least kick ass in terms of transparency 💪

So my #TacticalVoting #TacticalVote #GE2019 guide is now up to Version 4: jonworth.eu/2019-uk-genera…

The gist of it - now as before - is *how* to vote tactically is pretty clear in the vast majority of cases! 💪
In 500 of 632 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 constituencies how to vote tactically is crystal clear

In 86 of 632 which party is best placed to come 2nd is not clear, but tactical voting is unlikely to work

In just 46 of 632 there are ⁉️, or something is unusual - and even there clarity is emerging
Amongst the 46, according to my analysis:
1 is a special case
1 is a free choice Labour/Lib Dem
3 it's better to vote for the Independent candidate
21 it's better Lib Dem
10 it's better to choose Labour

One of the jobs of political parties in representative democracies is candidate selection

Then came #ge2019

Problem after problem after problem
I can’t remember an election where the main parties have messed this up so often and so many times

A thread of the most ridiculous and serious cases follows
1. Amjad Bashir
Tory, Leeds North East

Problems: anti semitism, was in UKIP

Status: still a candidate

Want to know how YOU can help .@realDonaldTrump and .@GenFlynn ??

Check out the suggestions on this thread.
Please share with your frens.
Thank you.

👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇
@realDonaldTrump @GenFlynn 1) READ the Q drops for yourself at qanon.pub
Future proves past. Re-read the old Q drops.

While you're there, check out the other pages.
There's a ton of information on that site.
@realDonaldTrump @GenFlynn DID YOU KNOW?
Many media outlets run anti-Qanon stories.

2) Go to the anti Qanon messages and counter their narrative with your own.
(NO violent messages pu-lease)

If you use twat, ask others to do the same.

Here is some info on anti-Q stories

From a purely scientific perspective...

...this statement is the oddest thing I have ever read on #TacticalVoting.

If you cannot see why, you shouldn’t be anywhere near data-based decision-making.

But allow me to explain anyway.[thread]
Firstly, tactical voting is about voting for whomever has the best chance.

To do that, *accuracy* of data on voter intentions is the key thing you need.

To say “We don’t dispute the accuracy”

...means you acknowledge it is accurate.

And have nothing better.
So if you don’t dispute the accuracy, what’s the “but”?

The quote continues that “using a number of different pieces of data... is a better way”

This shows deep ignorance of how @BestForBritain derived their results... as they use tens of thousands of rows of data.

OK. It's happening, and I can finally talk openly about it (a thread).

I have decided to transfer from my #PhD into a #Masters degree. I'm currently writing my thesis - I'm due to submit in October.

And I want to talk about it, because we don't talk about this enough.
This isn't a decision I've made lightly, or impulsively. It's due to a plethora of factors, including personal, project and professional reasons. It's something I've been thinking about for a long time, and something I should have thought more about before I even started my PhD.
I like studying. I like learning. I loved university, honours was challenging, but a PhD was the next logical step. I took a little time off (not enough)-but getting a scholarship early pretty much confirmed I'm be moving on to the next part of my academic life.

In /most/ regions (in England) the LibDems *do* have the best chance in the #EUelection2019 /however/ treating each region each region the same is naive and wrong. There are small regions (3-5 seats) and large regions (8-10 seats) and they can be treated differently.
In a small region, tactical voting necessitates targeting a single party - and it should be the party that has the most natural support in that region i.e. the one that has the best chance of winning and the most people would be comfortable voting for if asked to vote tactically.
From the polling and tactical voting calculators I've seen, most are simply looking at the base voting intentions and selecting the highest - none of them are asking or trying to work out which party tactical voters would be most comfortable voting for.

Ok so many problems with this. 1/x

1) Yeah, @PeteButtigieg, using Pharisee as a synonym for hypocrite is problematic and antisemitic, here, have a thread.
2) he talks about the need for religious left (yes, good) & immediately pivots to Christian language. Yes, he’s partly talking his own faith, notes other faiths can practice but he could’ve talked the religious left in such a broader, more inclusive way. I didn’t feel included.
3) AGGHH IT DOES NOT MATTER HOW THE WOMEN TRUMP ILLEGALLY PAID OFF VIOLATING CAMPAIGN FINANCE LAWS EARN A LIVING here have a thread on that, @PeteButtigieg

The Myth of the Lazy Nonvoter
