Dear potential Green Party voter in Mid Sussex,
Tactical voting may seem like a good idea, but it ultimately undermines the very principles of democracy. When voters feel compelled to choose a candidate they don’t fully support just to prevent another from winning, it means the electoral system is failing to represent the true will of the people.
In Mid Sussex, with its high levels of education and environmental awareness, many voters may feel a strong alignment with the Green Party’s policies on climate action, social justice, and political reform. However, under the current first-past-the-post system, some may be tempted to vote tactically for a “safer” choice.
We urge you to resist this temptation and vote for what you believe in. Tactical voting only perpetuates a broken system and makes it harder for new voices and ideas to break through. A vote for the Green Party, on the other hand, sends a clear message about the kind of future you want to see – one that prioritizes sustainability, equality, and genuine democracy.
By voting your values, you can help build momentum for change and put pressure on other parties to adopt more progressive policies. With your support, we believe the Green Party can become a major force for positive transformation in Mid Sussex and beyond.
