2014 Elections: Urban Exit Poll

[jakethesnake]

Surprised by how many parties named after either anti-eu or send-them-back policies. Splits the nutjob vote i guess. Nice to see UKIP right at the bottom, in a paper-fold of its own so you'd really have to look for it to find them...

Same as that... there were five right-wing parties (including the Tories), Labour, Libdems and the Greens.

 

[ska invita]

mixture of Lewisham People Before Profit, Greens and TUSC in that order depending what options were available (3 papers here: Euros, Councilors and Local Mayor)

 

[treelover]

Gawain Fucking Towler! Fuck me, what's next Sir Lancelot throwing his hat in the ring for the Elvis Bus Pass Party?

lots of horny handed sons and daughters of toil on the UKIP list,

all private school on that list

 

[butchersapron]

Surprised dilberto voted for a culturally marxist party like ukip.

Which list?

 

[treelover]

The UKIP members that Wilf is referring to

 

[NoXion]

Euro: Socialist Party of Great Britain

Locals: Three votes for Labour (sigh).

Fair few right-wing nutter parties on the Euro ballot.

 

[Wilf]

'There was once a boy called Eustance Clarence Scrubb and he almost deserved it'

Entering Narnia through a polling booth? Actually, yes, that's abut right.

 

[JTG]

Same as that... there were five right-wing parties (including the Tories), Labour, Libdems and the Greens.

That's seven and a half right wing parties then

 

[J Ed]

Good. I don't care.

 

[belboid]

Good. I don't care.

I agonise similarly when I don't read Owen's articles.

thanks

why would LPBP have him?

 

[ska invita]

Looks like i voted for this guy:
"John Hamilton, Lewisham People Before Profit candidate for Mayor, talks about our policies and objectives"


Steve Bullock (labour) will win it yet again...already 12 years under his belt

 

[DotCommunist]

for some reason my kettering polling station is solely for EU election, nothing else. And there was nobody left of labour standing. So, the testes and shaft response was called on

 

[tufty79]

local: alliance for green socialism
euro: green

 

[gosub]

Incidentally, the votes don't get counted till Sunday (to allow all the other countries who vote over a couple of days to get theirs done). Can't remember if there will be actual exit polls before then? Might have been some sort of 'gentleman's agreement' in the past about not publishing them till (all) the polls close. Can't imagine that will survive in an internet era. [dull speculation, I'm just wondering when Falange's crowing will start in earnest]

Exit polling has been banned across the EU until late on Sunday so as not to influence the voting in other countries. But under Dutch law, the ban can be bypassed

 

[N_igma]

Vote spoiled with the word 'cunts'.

 

[maomao]

Didn't register in time so I drew a cock on a piece of paper and put it in a box at home.

 

[PursuedByBears]

Voted Labour in the Euros.
No local elections in Lancaster this time but we kicked out all our Lib Dem councillors the last time.

 

[TodayIsCaturday]

I spoiled my local one and voted libdem for the euros.

 

[butchersapron]

I spoiled my local one and voted libdem for the euros.

Why? The latter i mean.

 

[TodayIsCaturday]

Why?

Well, the local one is a long story but to summarise I couldn't make up my mind between a bunch of uninspiring candidates and perhaps would have voted for one of them but they had made this deceitful statement about something so I wrote a message to them about that.

LibDem in the Euros because I wanted to put aside the whole in/out question (better left for the general election I think) and vote for someone who would actually do something useful in the European parliament - fish quotas, vehicle emissions, mobile charges all the Eurocrat bread and butter stuff. Plenty of MEPs from other parties don't seem to be to arsed with that.

 

[SaskiaJayne]

Voted Labour, all quiet at the polling station but apparently a few have been in today to join in the democratic process.

Day of the last general election:

Fucking hell, is this real?

 

[TodayIsCaturday]

Am I really the only person here who voted LibDem in the Euros?

 

[J Ed]

Am I really the only person here who voted LibDem in the Euros?

I hope so

 

[Kaka Tim]

Am I really the only person here who voted LibDem in the Euros?

On urban? Or in the whole country?

 

[editor]

I went for a reluctant mix of Labour, Green and urban independent.

 

[TodayIsCaturday]

I hope so

I guess I'm just more honest than some people.
