Have you have voted every single vote you been eligible for

[Beon]

Have voted all but two votes:
. 2005 GE as moved address about 20 miles away 3-4 weeks before the poll date
. 2019 EU. What was the bloody point in voting for candidates to sit there for 7 months?

I have, but have worked in local government so probably make it more of a priority than a lot of people do.

Missed 2015 General Election as DD was ill, heavy rain and polling station a mile walk away. However it was Sunaks constituency, it was a fore gone conclusion.

2017 GE... BFPO basically lost everyone's postal votes. They arrived after the election! We were given the option of proxy voting... not that useful when it was the last UK base you lived on!

And 2021 local election as we are ashamed to say... we forgot!

I've voted in every election since 1973. Even though my vote was worthless because we don't have proportional representation. Now that we have moved to a different county, my vote is at last in line with the rest of the local electorate which makes me very happy.

No need for people to vote.

If the numbers don't stack up, I have a guy, in
the palm of my hand, who can make them figures work proper.🇺🇲

I know what our people want, even if they don't!.

And I'm giving it to them, bigly.

Yes, not always for a party but even a spoiled vote is still counted as a vote.

Yes I have. Every single local and national election since I was 18.

Yes ...scince 1976 .. year l turned 18 and my Dad took me to the Conservative club.

Yes. I’m 60. Never missed a vote. It’s important.

Yes but I have spoiled my ballot at the last two.

I've missed at least one UK general election because I live abroad and they make it really hard for Brits abroad to vote, sending papers too late and things like that. I've missed one Presidential election in my country because at the time I was living out in the sticks so would have had to travel nearly an hour to vote, and it was down to two candidates, I was going to vote for one guy and my ex was going to vote for the other so seemed pointless when our votes just cancelled each other's out

Otherwise I haven't missed any, and do my best to figure out who is the best person to vote for (get a LOT of options in my country, there's were hundreds to choose from in the last election a couple of weeks ago) by doing the election machine questions and checking manifestos and things like that.

No. I didn't vote for Police Commissioner last time because I think the post is pointless.

Yes. Every election of any sort since 1997. Including when I lived away from home at university.

I know several people who voted for the first time in the Brexit referendum. They had no idea what to do, where to go etc. I was astonished, and said as much (they were well over 30!). Apparently they’d not voted because they “couldn’t be arsed”. Voted for Brexit though. That they could be arsed to do

Yes, every single thing I could vote in since I turned 18

No, because I’ve lived in two areas that are extremely safe Labour seats (one of them not even bothering to field a conservative candidate), and my vote won’t make or break it. A few times I’ve been scheduled to be out of town and haven’t felt it was necessary to go out of my way. If I was in the area on the day I would.

Yes, when I have been living in this country.

I could have had a postal vote when living abroad but didn't feel it would be right to vote here when I wasn't actually living here.

I have never voted not once and I’m mid 30s

Shame on you.

GE- yes
Local election- No. Not sure who most of the candidates are.

Cool

You seem proud - why?

I missed the 2010 GE as I was in hospital with my dd (she’d had major heart surgery and had just moved from PICU to HDU) - I watched it all night though, the only time I’ve done that. Otherwise I have always voted.

I missed one local election because I was jet lagged. I intended to go and vote that evening and fell asleep instead.

Other than that, I don't think I've missed one.

I don't think I have ever not cast my vote apart from a police commissioner election last year when I didn't feel able to as I had had any information about the candidates!

I’ve voted in every local, general, and EU election, and every referendum since I turned 18 in 1975. I can’t imagine not bothering to vote. I feel strongly that if you don’t bother to vote, even if you spoil your ballot paper as there’s no option to vote for ‘none of the above’ you have no right to complain about whatever the government, your local council etc does.

Yes.
