so, did anybody actually VOTE LibDem then?

Or was it just a brief flirtation before going 'back to base' as it were?

Sorry if this has been discussed ad nauseam on the other threads, haven't checked in on those yet, but I have to say I'm gutted that there wasn't more of a breakthrough for LibDems.
Myself, I'm in a Lab safe seat, LibDems in second place. I contemplated voting LibDem as really wanted electoral reform and GB out, but didn't in the end because:

  1. Couldn't trust them not to do a deal with Tories
  2. Nick Clegg was even going soft on electoral reform last week - the one abiding reason to vote for them
  3. Not convinced they are strongly anti-poverty

Why did the rest of you not vote for them then?

I voted for them in one of their top 10 target seats and...

there was a 3% swing to Labour. I am very disappointed they didn't do better.

I voted for the LibDem candidate and he got in, despite having his majority slashed from 11000 to 1500.

Yup - I did! Lib dem got the majority vote in our constituency.
