Liberal Democrat Voice (also known as "Lib Dem Voice") is a political blog, the site claims to be read by over 50,000 individual visitors per month specialising in British Liberal politics.

The site was created by Robin Fenwick on Friday 8 September 2006. Since July 2007, it has been run by a collective of Liberal Democrat members, activists and bloggers.

The aim of the site is to present views from a range of people and perspectives in the Liberal Democrats. The editorial line is neutral on matters of debate within the party and party selections and elections.

The site conducts regular surveys of Liberal Democrat members, which serve as a respectable bellwether of party opinion: mainstream UK press such as The Independent cite these, most notably over the issue of Vince Cable being the preferred candidate to succeed Nick Clegg as party leader. For example, in a 2011 survey, Vince Cable was also voted Lib Dem minister of the year.

The site is rated as the top Liberal Democrat blog by Total Politics for 2011 and has been consistently rated by Wikio as the 5th most influential political blog in the UK.
