Under FPTP many classic bellwether marginals, such as the two Bury seats (and previously the two Prestons) often flip from 2:0 to 0:2, whereas under PR-Squared these would likely become reasonably safe and stable 1:1 for the parties. |

Conversely, the new marginals might be found particularly in regions where previously parties enjoyed clean sweeps on relatively low shares of the vote, e.g. 100% of the seats for 50% of the votes. |

Of course, under PR-Squared, which seats are marginal, where they are, and how many there are, become largely irrelevant to the overall result. |
