| Eastbourne is a top target seat for the Lib Dems who held the seat between 1990 and 1992. The election will be a close contest between the Lib Dems and the Tories. the key question will be whether enough Labour voters switch to back established local campaigner Chris Berry to oust the Tory incumbent. |

| Can't see the Tories losing this one. They won back control of the local council in 2000, and should increase their lead this time. |
