THE FINAL PUSH

THE election campaign is quickly drawing to a close. With less then a day to go before the polls open, there is one last push for votes in the final day of the campaign.

After a whirlwind month of campaigning, historic televised debates, unexpected polls and dirty mud slinging by politicians and press alike there is an end in sight. Tomorrow, the electorate will finally have their say. The public have really been making the politicians work for their vote this election. As polls still suggest not one party has enough support to sail to an outright victory and majority government.

Cameron is gallivanting round the country on a last minute, last ditch, 36-hour tour. His make-up probably being plastered over the tired cracks in his face as we speak. Just like the way billboard after billboard have been pasted over with expensive, somewhat confusing slogans trying to gloss over the floors in unexplained Tory policy. Mr Blair Mark ii has not really made the impact with voters he was expecting to.

Brown experienced a biblical ‘Lazarus moment’ over the bank holiday. Summoning all his energy to fight as the Labour party desperately tries to cover the signs of an immanent implosion. Whatever happens tomorrow it seems as though Labour will probably turn in on itself.

Clegg is determined to echo the Liberal’s success in the earlier opinion polls, but with Labour once again regaining second place, the Cleggmania effect could be starting to wear away.

So as the political parties fight right to the end, every vote really will count. An expected hung parliament could mean that the result will not be clear. And with an estimated 40% of the electorate still undecided, it really is all to play for.
