Euro Parliament Elections 2019

[Scot Dutchy]

Always vote for someone.

[Svartalf]

can't, not when everybody is somebody I'd like to shove through a wood shredder

[Scot Dutchy]

Must be someone surely with all those lists.

[Svartalf]

there IS someone, but it's a small party without the means to get their ballots printed, odds are there won't be any in the polling station, so I can't vote for them.

[NineBerry]

Hm, the French Pirate Party have solved the issue by having voters download a PDF document for printing at home. You just need to make sure to use the right type of paper. They also have a map of voting stations where pre-printed ballots for them are available.

[Svartalf]

except of course this works best when the would be voter owns a printer, which is not my case...

[pErvinalia]

Just draw a dick and balls on a piece of paper and cast that.

[Svartalf]

well, blank or null are in the same category and not properly accounted for, which I deem a scandal... they don't give people incentive to make their opinions properly known and they wonder about the high rate of abstention, morons.

[Animavore]

Early polls suggest a big win for politicians with climate change related policies for Europe from Ireland and some gains for the Green Party at home.

[Scot Dutchy]

Not here. The EU was the most important. 80% are for the EU. Only 16% against.

[Animavore]

Also, a personal acquaintance of mine won a seat for Labour in my area.

Such a nice guy. I hope the power doesn't corrupt him too much.

[Svartalf]

There, I've done my duty, voted for the only half acceptable list on the roster, the Pirate Party, but now I feel my gesture was so futile I'm having a bout of the blues.

[pErvinalia]

Wait till the neoliberals get back in, then you'll know the blues. I'm still struggling to get over our conservatives improbably winning again.

[Svartalf]

fah, I'll check the paper at the café tomorrow morning, just to see whether Le Pen is heading the main party in the country or not, I at least have some hope support for macron will dwindle, he having thoroughly sodomized voters who hoped for change an a more or less left oriented guy... then again, the socialists have been thoroughly infiltrated by right wing elements since 1971... which might have led to their implosion and fragmentation in the aftermath of the hollande presidency.
