    its probably a good thing that voting in mandatory. I already put 10x more effort into putting the stupid slip in the envelope than I would normally be prepared to do. Ended up giving up and holding it to stuff it in. Am I allowed? Dont care. Jobs done. and frankly given I did some research and didn’t just draw a dick I’m prepared to bet I put in more effort than some folks will.

      I’m still waiting for my papers to arrive. Makes me wonder how big it is.

        Bigger than she says, but not as big as he claims.

      Just did mine.

      First time I haven’t voted green

      made sure all the fascists were last so that meant plain idiots and single issue candidates were higher up

        Still need to look up the details on the weirdos on my list. Who gets last is important fundingwise, so really do care.

      I just folded mine. Then watched the other half try to gently fit his in the envelope with his giant man hands while laughing quietly.

      My partner and I did ours over the weekend. 5 candidates, and one of them needed an editor for their blurb honestly. Completely nonsensical. Put them 5 haha.

      Also we just folded ours haha

        One of ours had a blurb that was just one entire sentence, no punctuation. Get someone to proofread, people!

      Council elections? I had a lot of trouble getting the envelope open far enough to put the ballot paper in. Ended up sticking a skewer in and waggling it about before putting the ballot paper in. I diagnose crappy quality control of envelope specifications.

      I’ve done mine, but turns out that both the post boxes near home are no longer there. Shows how often I post something & how much attention I pay. I’ll drive around with it later until I find one.
