The Euro Election Day Megathread

[-:Undertaker:-]

what time do we find out the winner

Local results will filter through tonight/tomorrow and Euro results will be Sunday evening.

I need to head out soon to vote. So far the only local candidate that's got any good policies is the UKIP one and apparently UKIP as a party let their local candidates have free reign over their policies which probably explains why this UKIP candidate, if you remove the UKIP facade, seems pretty decent.

I'll probably vote UKIP for European Elections, even though some of my international friends want me to vote Lib Dems

[Yupt]

Bet the Green party were right pleased with all the bloody paper used.

[Kardan]

I just voted. The people at my polling station said the amount of people was 'steady' and it was more than they expected to vote so far. Not sure if that's good/bad

even though i'm 18 in july i still wouldn't vote i don't care regardless

Then really (if you were 18) you should go and spoil your ballot.

I still think national elections should have a 'None of the above' option like my Uni (and I expect other Unis) do. At least then we can measure the amount of people that don't like anyone, to the idiots that can't follow simple voting instructions.

I would have voted if I registered but hey hum. I would have only spoiled my ballot anyway so it doesn't make a huge difference by any stretch of the imagination. So long as Labour doesn't win EU and local elections (especially after seeing an election leaflet by the local candidate) in my area than I'm not overly fussed.

a lot of young people coming out to vote ukip where they wouldn't have voted before it seems

[Kardan]

It's probably bad for UKIP, a lot of their votes come from people who will definitely vote rather than maybe vote. Not that estimates from a single polling station have any significant bearing on this matter.
