So what?    3 minutes ago, melthebell said: so they know which slip goes with which person, so unless they know all your details they cant be you and vote......obviously like you say DNA or microchips are the next step to make it completely infalliable though  That's not how it works Mel. No one knows what slip went with which person.     Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

They cross check that with the info from the people at the polling station. All the parties will be contacting those who said they’d vote for them, but haven’t yet.  Gives you endless opportunities for fun by telling all the parties you will vote for them, then voting really late😀 😂😂 I'll try to remember that for next time. Hope it's not too soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

The British intelligence community has been using a simple vote tracing procedure for many decades now to identify those who cast their ballot for anti-establishment fringe parties, such as communists, as a matter of routine.  Votes are traced by matching the numbered ballot paper to its numbered counterfoil. The numbered counterfoil also bears the voter's registration number from the electoral register, which is hand-written at the Polling Station when the ballot paper is issued. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

If agreed that it's invalid that's it, its short half second of fame is gone, never to be considered gain. Interesting, I didn't know that until earlier. Â This means that if say half the country spoiled their votes in a huge demonstration, it would simply be chalked off as a low turnout. Â Well, after 2 or 3 members earlier replied to my posts about not voting, (and a few customers today in my taxi) I decided to use my vote, and spoil it. I thought this was better than not voting, but as it happens, I might as well have not bothered with this new information. Still, there was a good outcome. I ordered a pizza next door, had a cig, tidied the car for tomorrow, and voted. I enjoyed the pizza! Â Â -- Â I hope someone reading this thread will see the LIVE Sheffield Hillsbro and Brightside votes, and posts how many spoils there were.
