In England and Wales, more than a hundred constituencies changed hands at the 2010 general election as compared with the 200S election. In Scotland, on the other hand, only one seat did so and that was the constituency won by the (previously Labour) Speaker in 2005, which had been regained by Labour in a by-election when the Speaker resigned. In terms of who won constituencies, therefore, there was no real change in Scotland. Such an outcome was foreshadowed in Scottish opinion polls conducted during the campaign. Figure 1 shows the trends in party support over the campaign and the extent of relative stability is clear. Labour's reported share of voting intentions declined a little; the Conservatives dipped in the middle but by the final week were just about back where they started; SNP support barely changed over the course of the campaign. As in die rest of Britain, the Liberal Democrats appear to have been boosted by the first televised leaders' debate but they declined towards the end of the campaign and the final poll put them close to the level achieved in 2005.
