[Politics] How busy are the Polling Stations where you live?
- Thread starter aftershavedave
- Start date
My polling station instructions specifically banned all dogs except assistance dogs. Election void!
Pretty quiet in Gloucester mid-afternoon. Perhaps people who live in Gloucester just aren't very interested in voting for the MP for Tewkesbury .................................
Fewer invigilators than usual, even though they have more to do (i.e. the identity check - although TBF as I had mine ready to hand that took less than ten seconds).

I was voter number 30(ish) in Glangrwyney at 9-15 this morning, so quite busy.
I did see a rather officious looking lady with grey hair perhaps in her 60’s sporting a Green Rosette on the corner of Herbert & Balfour making notes on her clipboard…
We voted at 11.00 in 'rural'ish Faversham. Two in front of us and two behind. If I were asked if it is too early to tell what the turnout is like I'd reply that it's too early to tell.
Fair play to you too, despite my differences with you i’ve always found you to be honest and true to your beliefs, half these Labour newbie’s would wear a dog shit neckless if Sir Kier Spineless told them too!!

A queue of around 25 outside one in Holland Road, Hove just before 1pm.
Definitely less posters in windows around my part of Hove for this election.Funnily enough only rosettes I saw this morning where two Greens, the theatre of trees polling station having been divided in two and one at each entrance. I did see Peter Kyle with a few red rosetted supporters just off Hangleton Road this morning. There certainly seems to be far less rosettes and posters generally at this election though

Quiet. But it was 7.30a.m
Do you mean they were checking dental records?

Waste of money and paper. Why give out posters in a seat with a 17k majority, and probably going to get larger?

Oh that was just a member of Chelsea's recruitment team looking to sign anyone from Brighton.

I don't know if you've noticed but they've collapsed, mainly because the "socialist" opposition has stolen all their policies and hence voters. The whole thing's a con, we should have a choice

Knoyle Road update - a minute wait, about 2 or 3 in front of you. No Labour presence at all - for a polling station I've taken numbers at (telling) many times in the past. Met someone coming out who said they just resigned from the Labour party four months ago. Greens were there, nice lady with a cute dog. Also not taking any numbers for some reason, assume because they are pretty relaxed about it all

Nicely busy - I was down there for about 30 mins because it's a bit of a social event. Only about 250 potential voters to use that polling station so you tend to know many of them!
