Well if the election was TODAY I don't know, I'll answer when I've voted (in which case where's the deliberate spoil option as I may need it)

Seems as good a place as any to ask... I sent off a form asking for a voting-card as I have recently moved house. Still not had it. Sent two emails asking for info both have been ignored. But I have had voting 'spam' through the door in my name suggesting I have been added to the database... anyone know what I should do as I refuse to lose my vote.

That's the thing, I read that about a month ago, followed the advice and printed off the form and sent it to the council... but I've yet to get my voting card back and obviously tomorrow is the last day for it to arrive which is what worries me.

Which constituency would you be voting in ?

I'm an advocate of not voting, but seeing as these stupid politicians would attribute that to laziness rather than a complete lack of faith in what is an absolutely ridiculous system I might take the time to mozy on down and graffiti my vote, if it's sunny, and if I'm on the register.

I always think it's better to do that than not to vote at all, if that's how you feel. I do support the Australian ideal of 'enforced' voting however.

 

Oh, and if anyone else is unsure on if they're registered to vote in the election and they come under Manchester Council then call 0161 234 3145. Finally managed to get something out of them (thanks for making me think to look back on aboutmyvote Zeros!).

You mean spoil your vote ? I think that is better than not voting at all for the reason you state.

That I can't dispute, not that it will make any difference.

 

If however a majority spoiled then we would see some........(drumroll please)........real change.

I think if some how Labour return a majority we will see AV in place..

 

A lib-lab parliament we will see PR before the next election...

 

I don't Labour can shy away from it this time.

 

If you we get the Torys we will stick to FPTP...

We need an option to name and shame the tory voters

[Lookers_Carl]

And BNP!!!!

 

I wouldn't be against a Labour/Lib Dem coalition, as long as Gordon Brown or Ed Balls were not Prime Minster

I think it's the Labour voters who are (the most) tapped.

 

Regarding your sig, isn't the aim of proposed cuts to try and enable us to live within our means as opposed to being driven by the opportunity of being able to cut millionaire tax bills?

 

Could your version be a tad sensationalistic, perhaps?

Me too, but I'm bored of people moaning at me saying it's not the same thing as spoiling your ballot paper (it is) so I'll go along and "Grand National" it instead, I think.

Spoilt votes are counted at least... and its great chance to draw some rude pictures

[leeslover]

As I suspect Mr Tulsehill will steal my vote, I shall cast mine here on his behalf as soon as I know which way he is going to opt.

That means very little, really.

 

Who's to say that it's viewed as a "protest"? Could it be that they're actually viewed as "This thick can't even fill in a ballot paper properly. Might as well have not bothered."

If the vote had been next week then a few papers could have been obviously spoiled mopping Greegs up after his parade around the pitch.

 

As it is we'll just have to use our imaginations.

I think I'll literally vote Green...

I think I'll literally vote Green...

As opposed to figuratively voting Green?
