Has everyone else got theirs? You don't need the card, as long as you're registered just show up at the polling station.

djw180 6,977 Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 (edited) @Squirrel https://www.gov.uk/voting-in-the-uk/polling-stations You moved recently, did you re-register at your new address? If not you will still be able to vote, but I think it will have to be at the polling station covering your old place.

Normally not that bothered about voting but this is a bigger issue that picking which wanker we want in charge.

Squirrel 5,180 Posted June 23, 2016 Author Share Posted June 23, 2016 I'll be voting in. A lot of European ties in my work and personal life. I'll total up all our votes here as well and we'll have our own mini XDBX referendum and compare it to the actual result in the morning. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/9410-should-we-stay-or-should-we-go/page/3/#findComment-146449 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great idea! Don't post it before 10PM though or you may receive an 'unlimited fine' or 6 months imprisonment! Boring legal shit: 'No person shall, in the case of an election to which this section applies, publish before the poll is closed: a) any statement relating to the way in which voters have voted at the election where that statement is (or might reasonably be taken to be) based on information given by voters after they have voted b) any forecast as to the result of the election which is (or might reasonably be taken to be) based on information so given. [Representation of the People Act 1983, section 66A] EDIT: I know this relates to elections but the courts don't always use take the literal interpretation of statutes. Experts have suggested this will apply I love the feeling that individual votes could tip the scale in either direction - polls have essentially been 50/50 throughout. It's not something you get from general elections with their multiple options, tactical and "wasted" votes.

I can only base it on peoples votes if they declare which way they have voted so it would just be an opinion poll. Like polls based the real vote taking place it will just be a sample of our voting numbers, many more people will be taking part in the vote and there are many who aren't saying which way they are voting. On social media I've noticed the OUT contingent are far more vocal than the IN contingent. If this was purely based on peoples opinions on Facebook then we'd be leaving Europe faster than shit off a very well oiled shovel. This vote is going to be decided by the silent majority who haven't spoken out.~ Edited June 23, 2016 by Squirrel Quote Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/9410-should-we-stay-or-should-we-go/page/3/#findComment-146481 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidCore89 7,404 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 (edited) Most people won't speak out because you'll immediately get labelled something by the opposition which doesn't fit. Whether you vote in or out, it doesn't matter, there's a stereotypical group waiting for everyone Edited June 23, 2016 by DavidCore89 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/9410-should-we-stay-or-should-we-go/page/3/#findComment-146483 Share on other sites More sharing options...
silenttigercd 863 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 @Squirrel on my social media the IN crowd are the vocal ones. OUT are pretty much silent.
