	United Kingdom general election, 1992 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The UK general election, 1992 was held on April 9, 1992, and was the fourth victory in a row for the Conservatives.
		Given that the 1992 election resulted in a Conservative overall majority of 21, it has been stated that their victory could be said to have been decided by only 1,241 votes distributed through the 11 seats with the smallest Conservative majorities in the election.
		In the end though the SNP only held onto the three seats they won at the 1987 General Election and lost the Govan seat that they had won in 1988 with their deputy leader Jim Sillars as candidate.
