Cambridge

Cambridge is a historic university city and the county town of Cambridgeshire, with a mixed population of academics, students, and tech-sector workers. Politically it is one of the Lib Dems' strongest English cities at local government level.

For the May 2026 local elections, Cambridge was selected as one of three pilots for England's flexible voting reforms, allowing residents to vote at any polling station within the borough rather than only at their assigned one. The dense urban geography and high proportion of registered voters in university accommodation made it a suitable test environment.
