It is unlikely that Nick Clegg will win enough seats in the House of Commons to maintain an overall majority (or to rule as a minority party) as the House of Commons is largely dominated by the Conservative party and Labour party.

Despite being Deputy Prime Minister under the Conservative-Liberal Democrat coalition, if the Prime Minister was to resign or die in office, another senior Conservative would be elected leader, meaning Clegg would only be Prime Minister for a short period in the interim.
