What is your final voting decision? *New Poll*

[Blah11]

disappointed ...... very disappointed!

also seems leeds messed up even more than not processing my form, thousands of people didn't get to vote due to losing polling papers and not having enough staff to get people through the doors before polling closed!

some people queued for 2 hours for them to then be told it was 10pm!

Well i dunno why so many people left it so late anyway? I guess the lesson for next election is to a. more volunteers and b. don't leave it until evening, try and go during the afternoon. I went straight from work and there was no queues. Suppose it's a good thing in a way that so many people wanted to vote.. makes a nice change.
p.s. you dont need your polling card to vote, you just need to be registered on their list.

[polo_princess]

Yeah i agree with Blah, its harsh that people didnt get to vote, but when most of us went the polling stations were nearly empty so there was plenty of space.

Arent you officially allowed time out from work to go and vote?

it was some of their lists that were missing so couldn't verify polling cards

people waiting 2 hours is crazy but apparently there was huge queues all day

I currently live in a labour area but I am moving to a conservative area in July. So I am happy! Lol.

Im not surpised, i think a big chunk of the BNP supporters are Herts/Essex/London way you know? I see a lot of people from other area's not having a BNP rep, but around here we all see to have one?

its bad aint it

 

[Rhi_Rhi1]

I'm not sure about wether u are aloud time out or work to vote or not, but i don't spose those people (not all any way) waited till that late through choice...
my dad for example works from 6 am till about 8 every day :/ and alot of people don't finish till 6/7/8
anyways if they wanted to wait till 8 or 9 to go and vote then i think they had every right to do so! its not a case of "they should of gone earlier" i don't think anyways... x

 

[buttonnose82]

43 left to announce and conservatives need 38, very unlikely as most of the seats to be announced are in the north

Here is the Dover result - a change from Labour to Conservative which I am happy with although Lib Dem would have been better). there were so many people running here - haven't heard of some of them! And a 70% turnout which is good I think.

Gwyn Prosser Labour 16,900 33.5 -11.8
John Brigden Liberal Democrat 7,962 15.8 +0.0
Victor Matcham UK Independence Party 1,747 3.5 +0.8
Dennis Whiting British National Party 1,104 2.2 +2.2
Michael Walters English Democrats 216 0.4 +0.4
David Clark Christian Peoples Alliance 200 0.4 +0.4
George Lee-Delisle Independent 82 0.2 +0.2
