To ask if you will actually vote?

[IdontlikePinaColada]

Not asking who you're voting for, but are you actually going to make the effort of voting (by going to the polling station on the day or postal vote)?

Am on the app so voting options don't seem to be available.

No. I always voted, got train across country etc. Ironically I'm down the road now but can't walk. No easy way to go apart from a taxi, no money for that so won't be there. H will go and take DD. Not massively enthusiastic about any of the options though I have to say

My husband will be over 7000 miles away for the GE, he will still vote! Postal vote will be your best bet, but you can vote by proxy too.

Definitely, we can't survive another 4 years with this shit show of a government so will definitely be voting them out

I disagree with you there. It's my own personal opinion but I think they did need to do those things or they could have been waiting years. As I say, my own personal opinion.

Yes of course I will vote , people risked their lives do that I could have a vote . That said our voting system makes my vote irrelevant probably and frankly I don’t much like any of the options but I will definitely vote.

I'm sure that parties used to have an organised effort by volunteers to drive voters with mobility issues to the polls (both parties have always, always depended on the pensioner vote) but it looks like now the preference is to support postal and proxy voting. That said, @DanielGault you could contact both Lab and Con in your area and ask if there is any assistance available for you to physically get to the polls on polling day if you want very much to do that in preference to a postal or proxy vote, which you still have time to arrange.

Yes I be, always do. This constituency will be staying blue though, first fpp is a ridiculous voting system. You never know, one day it might change.
*Hopes for a flying pig on election day.

Yes . I'm not a set in stone voter of a particular party and vote for whoever I feel will do the best job at that time for the country .

Thanks a million but I'm in Ireland and the voting is today so I've well and truly missed that boat. Good idea though, some of them might be desperate enough to taxi me down the road for a vote 😂

@TizerorFizz whether you agree with the tactics or war or not that has led us to this position, the fact of the matter is we are privileged to be able to vote, because there are people around the world who can't, because we were denied the vote for so long, and for that reason alone I will always vote, because I will never take it for granted. Even more so after these last few years, we've really seen how fragile our society really is, never assume we will always have this.

Of course. I always do, and for local council elections as well.

Yes, the only wasted vote is the one not cast

Yes I'm definitely voting, wouldn't ever not vote.

Yes will definitely be voting. I don't understand women who don't since we've not yet had the vote on the same basis as men for 100 years.

Will be away but already have a postal vote which is lucky.

I always vote, in every election big or small. I've never lived in a marginal constituency for a GE, but still I vote. As it happens, this time we have a really great lib dem candidate who has made a massive impact in local government, so who knows

Yes. Everyone should vote, even if that means spoiling your paper...which is a vote in itself.

It’s a legal obligation in Australia, I think they fine you. How enforced it is I have no idea.
I think you’ll find voting processes in Russia or Iran aren’t quite the comparisons you’re after 😂

Yes. I don’t usually vote (e.g. Brexit where I thought it would surely get rejected).

We’re in a usually safe seat where we live, but I don’t want to rely on that!! Will drag DH with me too 😂

I will. Great photo opportunity of a piece if paper being stuffed into a box.

Yes, because people fought hard for my right to vote, but I'm not against spoiling ballots if you feel that NoTA is the message you want to send. No-one knows that your vote is a "least worst" option, parties take a vote as an endorsement that you agree with them and actively want what they stand for. In this election I will vote for a candidate I know and like although I know they have no chance of winning.

I will go to the polling station, whether I select a candidate or spoil my ballot will be determined by the party manifestos.

At the moment a spoilt ballot looks most likely. I know it will be counted but I would prefer a 'none of the above' option.

Of course. I've never missed a vote since I was old enough (in the eighties)

Same here. The first general election I was eligible to vote in was in 1982, when Margaret Thatcher won her largest majority. (I didn't vote Conservative, by the way.) I've voted in every general election and by-election since then. I lived abroad for several years and didn't vote in council elections but I did vote in general elections as I always intended to return to the UK. While living in the UK I have voted in every election: general, by-, council, European Parliament, etc.

I have not voted for the same party in every election, but I have never voted Conservative and never will under any circumstances. I will continue to vote in every election until I succumb to dementia.

Yes. Our polling station is difficult for me to get to due to mobility issues but I'm still going and voting. It feels more important than ever this year.

You can register for a proxy vote so your H or DD can cast the vote on your behalf.

It's today. I'm not sure we have that option here, I know there's postal voting but missed that obviously.

I really don't like the idea of a legal obligation. It's far too authoritarian imo.
