“S” is used to represent Labour, but is used because it stands for “Socialist”.

So I only covered the last month but we were out doing something seven days a week. I’m standing as a councillor in May so have already done some door-knocking…

Happy new year…

I wouldn’t worry about the codes too much though, as long as you identify the Conservatives, the likely Conservatives and the definitely-not-Conservatives.

And if your neighbouring constituency is not safe, there’s often assistance offered to neighbouring constituencies by your local party.

I live in the Wimbledon constituency area, so Stephen Hammond is my MP. I thought that since we already have a conservative MP, there was no work to be done unlike in Mitcham and Morden where the McDonagh sisters are getting way too comfortable.

Since I live on the border, I was actually hoping to join the Mitcham and Morden conservatives until I discovered there wasn’t one.

What else do you guys do over at Wimbledon Conservatives?

Why is there no “F” for Kindly go away and cease bothering me?

Unless CCO have changed the canvas forms they’ve sent out since the election, I’d also guess that your survey materials were produced locally. Did they have the electoral roll and previous voting intention details?

The only thing I find a bit odd about your scheme is that there is a box specifically for Socialist. I suppose it stands in for Labour, but why not say so?

It may help though to see that the standard canvassing wording runs something like this:

“Good morning. I’m calling on behalf of Geoffrey Cox, your Conservative parliamentary candidate. Could you tellme how you intend to vote in the General election?”

You then note their response as above (as I’m in a Con/Lib marginal, we also have an “L” for Liberal option).

Of course, the aim of canvassing appears to be locating your support rather than winning people over.
