Who got your vote & will it count?

[Lottie4]

UKIP got mine, but I'm in an region with a safe Tory seat.

1.Your choice depresses me. 2. I hope not.

Sorry OP. Claig will be impressed with your choice though.

Oh boy, I stupidly honestly thought people wouldn't actually vote for UKIP.

There's 2 parties battling it out here. The 2 main contenders are currently stomping the pavements in the area to get us to vote as every vote does count.

I have not yet voted, doing that this evening. I love Polling Stations.

Your choice depresses me too. Especially after reading an article about UKIP/Farage's attitude to women...

Hmmm - is that the one where he says mothers returning to work should expect to be paid less than their male co-workers?

I love Polling Stations.

Me too! I was really hoping to be first at mine this morning but three other keen beans beat me to it.

Voted lib dem but it is a very safe labour seat here.

I voted Conservatives in a safe seat to keep my current MP's percentage topped up.

I voted SNP, previous safe seat but predicted to go to the SNP this time.

Haven't voted yet, going after work but I'm voting for local Conservative MP as he was hugely helpful to my family last year.

National ballot I am spoiling so no, it won't count

Lib Dems - It won't count because I'm in a very safe Labour seat.

I'd have voted Labour but I can't bring myself to vote for an MP that voted against the Marriage (Same Sex Couples Act) and is openly against abortion. That isn't someone that represents me.

I voted conservative in a safe conservative seat, so it probably didn't count.

It can only be a safe seat if all the people who used to vote continue to vote, so it's not wasted! Only feels wasted when you want to vote for a minority party in a safe seat.

Lib Dem, and no it won't affect the result.

For polling stations lovers, I give you 'the top 10 strangest polling stations across the UK':

I voted labour. His previously safe seat became more precarious last time so every vote counts.

I went into the polling station intending to vote Labour (this morning I was planning on voting LD) and I came out voting none of the above. I couldn't vote for any of them with a clear conscience.

Voted labour in previously safe seat but snp are everywhere! Hope others do the same as find the whole snp outlook very parochial although I do think NS is a very 'good' politician.

I voted Green because I'm a Green supporter and standing for the local elections in my ward. I kind of feel that no vote is a wasted one and that, if you wish, you should vote for what you believe in (rather than over-much tactically) Do feel that overall vote share will be reported on too and have some influence.

It is very close here though (between Con and Labour) - and I am hoping that Ed will be the new prime-minister tomorrow. Surely time for a change - Ed and Labour party have grown on me during the election campaign too

So it wasn't a completely easy vote but felt the right one on balance. As some kind of compromise dh is voting Labour (I think) - so they get one vote from our household. Voting for me for the locals though - or he better had!

SNP

Labour but we're in an ultra safe Conservative area.

Lib Dem, in a Con/Lab marginal and normally vote Conservative but even though my vote is 'wasted' I just couldn't do it this time as I don't rate our Candidate.

Very marginal seat here - I voted for the lady in red. It was historically a safe Labour seat, but the boundaries changed hugely before the last GE and the Labour MP lost by less than 2%. I'm hoping to get a new one this time.

I voted Tory - I have never voted them before but thought they were the best out of them all

I voted SNP, but they already have a HUGE majority here, so hoping for more of the same!

Will vote Lib Dem - going when DS is home so he can come with me. My vote won't count because it's a very safe Labour seat.

Lib Dem here too. Best balance of rationality and compassion I could find (you can't have one without the other and make it work long term). I doubt they'll get in, but if you don't vote for something you believe in, you're voting for something you don't. Also signed a petition online for looking at PR again.
