E. A. Fieldhouse, C. J. Pattie and Ron Johnston

British Journal of Political Science, 1996, vol. 26, issue 3, 403-418

Abstract: Tactical voting has become increasingly salient in recent elections in England. However, it is not only voters who behave tactically. Political parties may also act tactically by focusing their election campaigns on marginal seats. This Note provides a unique exploration of the relationship between local campaigning and tactical voting in England, at the 1992 general election.
