Local Elections


Recommended Posts

How many folks will turn out to cast their vote come polling day? Can never understand why its always such a crap turnout people have a vote why not use it or is everyone happy with their lot. My Dad always said you have a vote use it if you dont vote then dont complain about things.

Because very few people give a stuff about local politics, thats the long and the short of it.

More fool them if a) they have missed this news, and/or b) they cant read a polling card properly.

Funnily enough the polling card just arrived.  If people miss the banner at the top then they should go and get their eyes tested

Heading at top would be better in a different colour, or different font / size to make it stand out. Otherwise it looks very much like the usual form.

 

Personally, I will be voting for an independent if there is one. 

 

I am taking the trouble to read any information on my local candidates which comes through the door, but I have to say it is very uninspiring; just the same old same old, which tells me very little. 

I would like to see a full background CV on each candidate, just like for a job interview.
