Notes: The forecast base was the 2011 Scottish Parliament Election. A Uniform National Swing method was used (UK-Elect supports several alternatives). The forecast was (of course) made using the Additional Mamber System used in the Scottish Parliament elections. Tactical voting was set to 0% (i.e. disabled). Note: The colour scheme selected for the maps shown on this page uses Yellow for SNP, Orange for the Liberal Democrats, Red for Labour and Blue for the Conservatives. UK-Elect supports several alternate colour schemes and also allows party colours to be configured individually if desired.
Suggestions and Corrections: UK election forecasts are sometimes very controversial. To notify us of any suggested change to this one, or to let us know of any part of it that is just dead wrong, please email us on support@ukelect.co.uk.
