This is our tactical voting guide to keeping out SNP candidates in the 2024 general election. This page takes the set of constituencies where SNP candidates stood last time and divides them into three categories using the rules below.
Rules
We assume that tactical voting is only a good idea against a SNP candidate in a particular constituency when, in the last election, they held the constituency and were no more than 25 percentage points ahead of the second placed candidate or did not win the constituency and were no more than 25 percentage points behind the winning candidate.
If a by-election has taken place after the last election then that result is used instead of the one from the last election.
Usage Guide
In my opinion, the best way of using this guide is as follows:
For tactical voting against other parties see here.
For the newer (and more sophisticated) tactical voting calculator see here.
Our recommendation: Vote for the parties recommended in this table. If there are two such parties, the first choice is probably the most effective.
There are no such constituencies.
Our recommendation: Vote for whichever party you like.
