Dr Kenneth Noisewater 0 Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Some woman has just been on saying she went to vote after work but there was a bit of a queue so she thought she'd pop back later. The vibration you can feel is Emily Pankhurst doing 15000 rpm underground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maggiespaws 0 Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 People are being turned away from voting at 10pm, when the doors closed. There is a bit of an outrage about it going on over at the BBC, but come on, if you want to vote you have 7am-10pm for fuck's sake. Yeh people can't complain. It's enough time to get there and pop a card in a box. Tbf, if you dont get in from work until after 6pm (I dont normally get in until after 6pm) and the queue is already very long, then its hardly surprising. I work about 3/4hour away from home and its not like I could nip out at lunch to do it. I'm sure I'm not alone. Bring kids, tea time and the bedtime routine into the equation and the evening is gone All joking aside, I think its a little churlish to blame people for not getting there early enough when I can think of several reasons why people could be delayed.

There's the option of postal votes though. I have no sympathy on those who've missed out on time however those who've been unable to vote because the polling station has run out of ballot papers is an absolute disgrace.

What time do you start? ( ) On the client site for 9am. I have to take my son to nursery on the way though and need to have him there for 8am or I hit the motorway at the worst time. At a real push I possibly could have done it before leaving for work but it would have added 20mins or so to my morning. As it happens, I was able to do it this afternoon as I ended up working from home this afternoon. My point was that I can understand the possibility for people to struggle to get to a polling station later in the evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to disagree with you there mate. I would never have thought of doing a postal vote as I have always intended to vote in person. Are you saying that someone who turns up 45mins before the polling station closes but gets stuck in a queue only has themselves to blame?????

Holden McGroin 4864 Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Interesting interviews on ITV about the voters being turned away. 1 woman : Went before work - queue massive.

Didn't have time Came back at 18:30 queue huge again Came back again at 21:20 and police turned away as there wasnt enough time. Shocking. Why the fuck is this happening in 2010? I first voted in the 80s and I can't remember it happening before. If it's a hugely increased turnout is it down to the leader's tv debates? Is it that theres a huge amount of people want to get out there and give Broon a severe kicking in the ballots? Fuckin weird...but I rememeber when Bush jnr first got in there was uproar when police prevented voters from getting near the polling stations where his opponenet was expected to do well...it'sll be interesting to see where the queues were told to go home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig 6307 Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 6 seats declared on the mainland - not one to the Tories but every single one of them with a large swing to them. Durham North and Darlington both with around a 9% swings to Tories - national average must be bloody close to a Tory majority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I've said above - I can think of a few reasons why people would be voting later in the evening; but to be fair, those reasons would have equally applied 20/30 yrs ago. So in saying that, I can't see why its resulted in problems this time around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
