Highland LibDem Wipeout?

Electoral Calculus predicts Kennedy, Alexander and Thurso to lose Westminster seats

Election prediction specialists Electoral Calculus are predicting that all three Highland seats currently held by the Liberal Democrats will fall to the SNP in May's General Election.

Ross, Skye and Lochaber (currently held by Charles Kennedy), Inverness, Nairn, Badenoch and Strathspey (currently held by Danny Alexander) and Caithness, Sutherland and Easter Ross (currently held by John Thurso) are predicted to become SNP gains.

Electoral Calculus are also predicting Labour winning the most seats (32 more than the Tories) but failing to get an overall majority (29 seats short). The SNP are predicted to win, an extraordinary, 50 seats. Predictions are based on an aggregation of polls conducted from January 11th to 30th this year sampling 10,760 respondents.

We live in interesting times particularly if you are a LibDem MP.
