    Was going to tactically vote LD, then thought Green. But I am going to vote Labour as Miliband has impressed me. I genuinely fear for the country if the Tories get back in.

    Still going to spoil but might throw my vote away with my local Lib Dem who is doing a great job locally.

    If you're split between Green and Labour but really don't want the Tories in, look up your constituency and who currently holds it.

    If it's a Labour seat, vote Labour to hold onto it.
    If it's a Tory seat being targeted by Labour, vote Labour to oust the Tory MP from their seat.
    If it's a safe Tory seat, vote Green as Labour have no chance of winning there anyway.

    The only other scenario is if you think Green have genuine chance of winning in your constituency eg Brighton Pavilion then vote Green.


    If you want do the above for UKIP, the Tories and Labour then it obviously works in exactly the same way.

    The above is how I've come to conclude voting Green is the best option for me.

    What if I'm split between Cons and Ukip?

    I've kept my powder dry until now but for me has to be Labour, and yes I have been through the 'mill' over the last few years.

    Please refrain from discussions from now on. You're still free to post your party if you haven't already since restarted. I will tally up before midday tomorrow so some may have already voted. We can then do a comparison compared to 2 weeks ago and again after all the results are through on Friday. I have received some PMs which will all remain anonymous that option is still there for you.

    Results of 2nd open poll.

    Conservative 24% (no change from 1st)
    Labour 35% (up 5% on 1st)
    Liberal Democrats 5% (up 1% on 1st)
    UKIP 19% (up 4% on 1st)
    Green 8% (up 3% on 1st)
    Others 1% (down 1% on 1st)
    None/spoilt ballot 3% (down 8% on 1st)
    Undecided 5% (down 4% on 1st.)

    The 13% move is merely from people making their mind up or changing their mind from not voting to voting.

    Now we'll just wait for AFKAs exit polls and tomorrow's final results. Thanks everyone for taking part.
