JohnW Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 It might sound daft but please remember to vote tomorrow! The following is a true story: In a local election in a Shetland ward an SNP candidate worked hard in his campaign and come voting day he ran people back and fore to the polling station (it was in a rural Island community) and at the end of the day he went home exhausted and sat down, suddenly realising that he hadn't actually voted himself, by the time he got back to the polling station it had closed. When the votes were counted it was a dead heat which was decided by drawing of lots, needless to say he lost, had he remembered to vote he'd have won by 1 vote!

A similar thing happened to Bart in an episode of The Simpsons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
