Never noticed when voting

[hockers666]

I have voted 4 or 5 times but never noticed a number on my ballot paper , have been told today there is a unique number on them that tallys with your name on the register when you go to vote they put that number by the side of your name, can,t see it myself but can anyone say they know if this is fact or fiction ?

I think it's the other way round, that they put the number from the register onto your ballot paper.

It's so individuals names and voting records can be passed to the Economic League and MI5 and then entered onto a database. Anyone voting for a non-mainstream party then gets a visit from black clad, balaclava wearing men who cart you off to a "re-education" facility.

 

Hope that helps.
