ELECTION LATEST: It's so close
Elections in Chelmsford are a close fight between the Liberal Democrats and Conservatives
Your vote WILL make the difference between whether our next MP is Lib Dem Marie Goldman or a Conservative MP.
How people vote in closely fought constituencies like here in Chelmsford will decide the result of the upcoming General Election.
In the Chemlsford elections last year it was neck and neck between the Conservatives and Liberal Democrats. Just a handful of votes could decide which of them wins this time.
Every vote will make a difference between a Conservative or Lib Dem win here.
Labour don't beat the Tories in Chelmsford.
Lib Dem or Conservative here
There are two choices. Either we will get a Conservative MP - and the out of touch government will continue to take Chelmsford for granted, or we will get a Lib Dem MP in Marie Goldman and Chelmsford will have helped bring dow this government.
No other result is possible here.
A Labour vote will help the Conservatives win
A vote for third-place Labour here risks letting Chelmsford's Conservative MP sneak and win and help this government cling to power.
Labour don't win any council seats in Chelmsford. They just don't beat the Conservatives here.
