I try this every now and again and (who knows) might try again, randomly. The South is a potential problem area, but there are possible solutions (especially as it isn't as though we have to work out massive backstories).

Of course the result will always look a little hilarious these days, because voting patterns in the U.S are now structured around very different things to the U.K; in the 1980s there would have been much more common ground.

I was using the IPSOS/MORI 'How Britain Voted' data and applied it to the US.

That data is pretty suspect except in very general terms, so careful as you go with it.

Not sure what you mean by this; Labour won the most votes in the Yorkshire & Humber region, though not by a great deal (34.4 against 32.8 ). Or do you mean that the results in the survey went the other way?
