I will, but this time don't see the purpose. Our local councillor will get in even though they're about as straight as a bowl of noodles. And it's the local mayor who again will get in.
I feel like drawing a daffodil on the voting slips ...

I do hope so else I'll have nothing to do tomorrow night. The 10pm start is past my bedtime so I hope it's going to be worthwhile 
Tomorrow night is just checking that the correct number of papers are in the ballot boxes that arrive from the polling stations. Actually counting of the votes doesn't happen until Friday and I haven't been invited to work that session.

Me too. Saves me forgetting to go, or getting caught in a meeting. Guaranteed to get it done in the 3 weeks or so they give you. I do wonder if general voting turnout would increase if postal votes were mandatory. Also less disruption e.g. buildings and even schools are sometimes closed for voting to take place

Yup. Usually vote for an independent - at least they might get their deposit back. This time for the one in favour of proportional representation.

Police Commisioner only here. Done my Postal Vote.
Googled for policy info on the 5 candidates, found zip, nada, nil ... until the day after we posted our votes, when an email arrived from one of the candidates !!!

Round here some candidates at counting time kick off big time when they see what some write on ballot papers. The fact that they've even turned out to vote and maybe they. Need to change how they go about things is lost on them.

I'll be voting. It's Police Commissioner here.
My vote won't mean much to anyone else, but being engaged means a lot to me.

Well I'm not voting for you!!
BTW - I have a Post Vote bit I haven't posted it
I have to take my wife to the voting station anyway as she can;t walk that far so I'll just drop it in while I am there
apparently I will have to fill in a form this time - not sure of the reasons this is more secure than if I posted it but whatever - best people know what to expect!

Filled one in yesterday. It's a pretty simple form basically ask's how many your handing in , for who and you're not an election agent.
