Expected low turnout means ‘GOTV’ even more crucial than normal
An expected low turnout in the key Peterborough by-election this week means that the usual ‘get out the vote’ (GOTV) effort to mobilise Labour’s voters are even more critical than normal as Labour seeks to retain the seat it won in 2017.
Labour members and supporters who can get to Peterborough to help are asked to report to the location below any time from 9am to the close of polling stations:
Unite the Union office
15 Church Walk
Peterborough
PE1 2TP

It’s not the low turnout that will destroy your vote here, it’s the fact almost two thirds voted to leave the EU in the referendum and labour has done all it can to ignore them and try to thwart their wishes.
The result: you’ll be getting a Brexit Party MP in Peterborough.

If Labour vote holds we win, if it’s a Brexit protest vote we lose narrowly
