I've only missed one opportunity to vote since I was 18. I believe that as a female, I owe it to those who suffered or died to enable me to have my say.

We had to queue up. There were six people in front and then another six behind, when we left including a number of 20 year old's.

I voted too. As in other places, it looked like a low turn out. Only saw one other person there when I went.

I haven't checked my local results yet (Council Elections). Maybe that shoud be the next thing on my "to do " list.

Yes.

I have voted in every single election since I became eligible to vote at 19, bar one local one, which was when we were bang in the middle of moving house.

we did - I always think of what the suffragettes went through to obtain the vote for us girls!

We only had a leaflet from the "No" contingent. There was very little publicity for the referendum locally, perhaps it's been different Wales and Scotland, and areas where there have been council elections. It would have been very easy to forget here (London).

Didn't ask Gwyn. We were all telling her off - people throwing themselves under horses and chaining themselves to railings so she had the right to vote!

To be honest, she is run off her feet with the family business, but says she normal does vote. No doubt they had been inundated with leaflets as they are in a 'key' constituency - which ever way they vote reflects the country. Although she will never live it down, we can probably forgive her one lapse :-)

Our polling cards came weeks ago, before the census, so could have been overlooked by now.

Didn't your friend get any election leaflets to remind her.?
We've had them almost daily in the past week.

Gwyn

We've all voted - well, there aren't any polling cards laying around, so supposedly everyone has. Mind you, talking to a friend this evening, she had forgotten that today was Polling Day and the Polls were closed by then.

We all voted, YES / NO , town and district. here.
OH and I voted mid morning, daughters went after work.

Gwyn

I did...and was told by the lady coming out as i was going in that only 63 people had voted since opening ...and that was about 5 PM!

It was quiet when I went Fiona , my guess would be a low turnout .

Yep. I voted. I always do....and I drag at leat 3 others along with me who wouldn't have done if I hadn't made em lol x

I did too, but I didn't see much evidence of anyone else being that bothered either way. I wonder what the turnout will actually be.

I did . :D

Did anyone actually vote today?
