So did you actually vote?
 

Out of interest did you actually vote? I've put the poll so that you can't see who's voted so it's totally anonymous if you want it to be but it's just to get an idea of whether people actually went out or not.

St Andrews had the highest turnout of 43%, compared to some of the others that's incredibly good.

I have only missed voting once in my life and that was in a European Referendum in the 70s, I was working in Scotland at the time. I think that everyone should vote irrespective of political persuasion as two many people in the past have given so much to enable us to do so today.

realy , i wasnt aware my area was up for voting i certainly didnt recieve a voting slip and i am registered

mind you although i live in the milnshaw ward infact i live right next to milnshaw lane i think somthing has been going on with the voting boundries because unlike the rest of my area my street has to vote at the other side of town

Re: So did you actually vote?
 

Much as I hate to do this but I have to agree with you. I believe everyone should vote and especially women given the battle that our grandmothers and great grandmothers had to get the vote in the first place. It saddens me that so few people vote. Even though we had a good turn out in St Andrews it was only 43%. That's a lot of people who couldn't be bothered!

If you are in politics long enough Gayle you will have to get used to public apathy, but I hope that compulsory voting is never brought in in this country

Re: So did you actually vote?
 

Hope it dosnt go down that road but with the apathy around it might happen someday. The vote is there to allow people to choose how their councils run and what policies will be followed to their benifit.If people dont vote they cannot complain if what they want they dont get yet based on the turn people cannot be bothered which is sad. Even if the candidate you vote for loses at least you did your part.
