Mere survey results

September 10, 2010 9:19 AM

Thanks to everyone who returned their survey form sent out in advance of the public meeting held by the Liberal Democrats in Mere in August.

Here are the results.

The first question was whether the Lib Dems were right, given the general election result, to work in coalition with the Conservatives. 77% said Yes, 13% said No, and 10% were undecided.

Second question - do you support fixed term elections with the right of the PM to fix the date being taken away. 54% said Yes, 33% No and 13% undecided.

When asked if they supported a change to a fairer voting system the figures again were 54% 'Yes', 33% 'No' and 13% 'Don't Know'.

Of those who revealed a political allegiance 21% were Lib Dem, 71% Conservative and 7% Labour.

So considering there was a high response rate from Conservative voters yet still a majority support for Fair Votes this is a hopeful sign of a good result in next May's referendum.
