The newly drawn constituency of Aberdeen South consists of territory on both sides of the river Dee, and electors who were formerly in the very different South that existed at the last Election and in the old Kincardine and Deeside, almost equally in numbers.
Unlike the old South, which was a tight Conservative-Labour marginal which the Tories actually managed to gain in 1992, the new seat is a three-way marginal. Nearly half its electors come from Kincardine and Deeside, which the Liberal Democrats briefly held after a by-election in autumn 1991. It is hard to pick a winner here, but the favourite is probably the current South MP, Conservative Raymond Robertson.
