How people vote in closely fought constituencies like here in Eastbourne will decide the result of the upcoming General Election.

At the last General Election here in Eastbourne it was neck and neck between the Conservatives and Liberal Democrats. Just a handful of votes could decide which of them wins this time.

Every vote will make a difference between a Conservative or Lib Dem win here.

Labour can't beat the Tories in Eastbourne.

Lib Dem or Conservative here

There are two choices. Either we will get a Conservative MP - and the out of touch government will continue to take Eastbourne for granted, or we will get a Lib Dem MP in Josh Babarinde and Eastbourne will have helped bring down this government.

No other result is possible here.

A Labour vote will help the Conservatives win

A vote for third-place Labour here risks letting Eastbourne's Conservative MP sneak a win and help this government cling to power.

Labour don't have any councillors in Eastbourne . They just can't beat the Conservatives here.
