Something which I haven't seen discussed at all...the local elections from last month.
How to reconcile such large differences in the results, if not by blaming May's electoral campaign and praising Corbyn's (and his success in increasing the youth turnout)?

I mean, now everyone is praising Labour and Corbyn for doing much better than expected, but the negative expectations didn't just come out of the blue or personal aversion to Corbyn...there had been heavy losses in all by-elections and local elections, and all national polls agreed in showing a large gap between Tories and Labour.

So, are we looking at an election in which the last month of campaigning actually explains most of the voting dynamics?
