dwarf Posted May 5, 2010 Posted May 5, 2010 I thought it would be interesting to see how representative NE is of the UK (not very I assume) by making this poll now on your votes, and checking them against the soon to be announcement. I'm sorry if I'm generalising by just including the main 3 parties, but oh well. This'll be a private poll, so don't worry about getting raped over you decision when people view the results. If you want to make it clear in the thread you can if you want, but there's already a thread for that really.
dwarf Posted May 5, 2010 Author Posted May 5, 2010 Shush, I made the post and added the poll after. Because that is the right thing to do.
Daft Posted May 5, 2010 Posted May 5, 2010 Wow, it's a dead-heat with everyone on 0%. We should have a running one, not one with a close date.
Raining_again Posted May 5, 2010 Posted May 5, 2010 well i'll be on other, through lack of choice... (northern ireland parties obvs don't count?) The Ulster Conservatives and Unionists (UCU) said it was offering the NI electorate an opportunity to influence Westminster government by voting for those who could have ministers in a new administration. In a statement issued on behalf of Ulster Unionist leader Sir Reg Empey and Conservative Party leader David Cameron, UCU said it wanted to "end Northern Ireland's semi-detached political status". That's where my votes going.
dwarf Posted May 5, 2010 Author Posted May 5, 2010 I thought having the results hidden would ensure no one was influenced in their decision before hand. They'll be revealed 10.48 tomorrow when there will be plenty of talk, so just get your vote down and tomorrow can be discussion tyme. I am sticking with my decision because I believe it is the right thing to do.
gaggle64 Posted May 5, 2010 Posted May 5, 2010 Lib Dem for sure. Finger crossed for a hung parliament!
Nicktendo Posted May 6, 2010 Posted May 6, 2010 I'm voting greens in Leeds and Lib Dem in York, as there are no Greens and it's only a 0.4% Swing to the Tories.
McPhee Posted May 6, 2010 Posted May 6, 2010 I don't think there's that much mystery around who is going to come out top in this poll In fact, I'd bet on the Tories coming dead last :p
Nintendohnut Posted May 6, 2010 Posted May 6, 2010 I'm going with Labour, as it's the only party in my constituency that can beat the Tories. Voting for Lib Dem here is like pissing into the wind. Hung parliament may be mighty interesting... I'm voting greens in Leeds and Lib Dem in York, as there are no Greens and it's only a 0.4% Swing to the Tories. You're voting twice? Confused face!
Nicktendo Posted May 6, 2010 Posted May 6, 2010 I'm going with Labour, as it's the only party in my constituency that can beat the Tories. Voting for Lib Dem here is like pissing into the wind. Hung parliament may be mighty interesting... You're voting twice? Confused face! I have a voting card in Leeds (uni) and York (home) so I'm going to use both of them. I'm just as confused as you but I find it best to just ignore it in the hope that no-one will notice
The fish Posted May 6, 2010 Posted May 6, 2010 What's the point in it being hidden...? Seconded, why not show the results at least? Oh, and Lib Dems!
Debug Mode Posted May 6, 2010 Posted May 6, 2010 Hidden results suck ass. I'm pretty confident every one here is mature enough to know their own opinion rather than be swayed by the majority of views from a video game forum. I DEMAND A POLL REFORM.
Eenuh Posted May 6, 2010 Posted May 6, 2010 Seeing as I don't live in the UK and won't be voting, I won't put my vote in this either. But it would be for Other anyway; don't even know anything about those three parties heh. When I am forced to go vote again this June (since our government messed up and quit), I'm going to vote Green again. And I'm hoping more people will start voting for different parties than those that are in power now, cause change is desperately needed.
Ashley Posted May 6, 2010 Posted May 6, 2010 What's the point in it being hidden...? I presume he's set it to reveal itself after 10pm? In fact...I can probably check that rather then speculate. Yes! Well, it will be revealed at 10:48pm tonight.
Wesley Posted May 6, 2010 Posted May 6, 2010 I presume he's set it to reveal itself after 10pm? In fact...I can probably check that rather then speculate. Yes! Well, it will be revealed at 10:48pm tonight. Oh ok, that's quite cool!
Jimbob Posted May 6, 2010 Posted May 6, 2010 I have placed my "virtual" vote. I shall be voting for real at around 5pm today, it would have been too complicated doing it first thing (would have missed the train as i would have walked 1/4 mile backwards before going forward).
jayseven Posted May 6, 2010 Posted May 6, 2010 Where's the "I forgot to register so I can't vote" option?! ... Being able to view the hidden results so far made up for it, a little.
