Did you vote today?

Did my "bit".
Read leaflet listing Mayoral candidates, watched 10 minutes of candidates debate on TV before nodding off, looked at additional info received from candidates that had bothered/could afford to deliver leaflets (2 of 7).
Thrilling.

Yes I did and have never missed a vote ever.

Cherrytree We live closer to the polling station than to the pillar box!

Yes we did postal votes.
Would be interested to know
postal votes v polling stations turn out numbers.

Postal voted. Not that it makes much difference. Our local councillor is very good and active and popular and just happens to be under the Liberal banner (but party policies have little relevance). He always gets returned with a large majority.

No apathy here. My problem was the candidate I normally vote for is also leader of the county council and I don't like what he wants to happen with the district councils in Oxfordshire. No election bumph from anybody else, they appear to be the apathetic ones.

I did, DS x2 did, DD X3 did. So we needn't have bothered as we were 3 for each of the main parties. DH didn't for the first time since I've known him.

He will vote at the GE!

It seems such a low turn-out, particularly as we're in the middle of a General Election .... regardless of one's usual allegiance.

I do wonder why people are so apathetic.

Those who don't usually vote have surely seen how their vote was so effective in the Referendum?

No I didn't. For the first time ever (42yrs) she who marches family round to the polling station just couldn't do it. So fed up with everything political at the moment!

I voted. Votes for women were hard won. We need use our vote. People can't really complain about the outcomes of elections if they don't vote!

I voted yesterday in the local election as did DH and DD2. The turnout in this district was 33%, hope more manage to stagger to the polling stations for the biggy next month.

I have a postal vote and used it.

No but I did yesterday

Our area remains Conservative

Meant vote yesterday!
