Posted October 30, 20195 yr I want to see if you lot think it's a good or bad idea before I contact No.10 to suggest it. I think every polling station should have Christmas music playing all day on 12th Dec. They could have Now Christmas on loop and some others too. Also what about them having mince pies and some mulled wine? Get everyone in the Christmas mood as they cast their votes. :) Any comments or views please.

I doubt they'd allow Christmas music (or any music) to be played in a polling station. It could subconsciously influence people's vote. If some polling stations won't even allow you to bring SOAP into the station because it's been shown to influence voters, I very much doubt they'd do something that can have a more direct influence on your mood. Of course, it would mean that if you're name is Chris or Christopher, or Christian, you'd be more likely to get votes as a result. Which reminds me, I've got 10 signatures and £500 to round up.

October 30, 20195 yr What about the mulled wine and mince pies? Could be interpreted as a bribe, plus also a chance of subconsciously influencing voters, and consciously by getting the electorate pi$$ed.
October 30, 20195 yr Could be interpreted as a bribe, plus also a chance of subconsciously influencing voters, and consciously by getting the electorate pi$$ed. And I believe voting while pissed is technically illegal.
October 30, 20195 yr Author And I believe voting while pissed is technically illegal. No it's not. Just been reading the do's and don't and surprisingly they can't stop you voting even if you're inebriated unless you cause trouble or try to influence anyone else.

October 30, 20195 yr I wouldn't say no to a mince pie if they were being offered out but let's not add to the oversaturation of the Christmas music thank you very much x
October 30, 20195 yr No it's not. Just been reading the do's and don't and surprisingly they can't stop you voting even if you're inebriated. Ah, that explains the result of the EU referendum.
October 30, 20195 yr Author Ah, that explains the result of the EU referendum. :rolleyes: How ridiculous. :D
October 30, 20195 yr Could be interpreted as a bribe, plus also a chance of subconsciously influencing voters, and consciously by getting the electorate pi$$ed. The “Democracy Sausage” is an integral part of voting in Australia. I’m all for learning off our antipodean cousins
October 31, 20195 yr Author The “Democracy Sausage” is an integral part of voting in Australia. I’m all for learning off our antipodean cousins Hot dogs it is then. :D
October 31, 20195 yr I doubt the people working in polling stations want to be subjected to the same hour of music repeated on a loop 15 times.
October 31, 20195 yr I doubt the people working in polling stations want to be subjected to the same hour of music repeated on a loop 15 times. After all, if they wanted that they'd be working in a shop.
October 31, 20195 yr Ah, that explains the result of the EU referendum. So if they'd been sober, they'd have voted even more strongly for Leave? :teresa:
October 31, 20195 yr I want to see if you lot think it's a good or bad idea before I contact No.10 to suggest it. Anyone else had a Baldrick 'I have a cunning plan' moment... :lol: Edited October 31, 20195 yr by vidcapper
November 2, 20195 yr So if they'd been sober, they'd have voted even more strongly for Leave? :teresa: Nope. 51% v 49 and that's a SUPER STRONG vote for you? Lolololololol. Also why is this troll thread in news and politics?
November 2, 20195 yr Author Nope. 51% v 49 and that's a SUPER STRONG vote for you? Lolololololol. Also why is this troll thread in news and politics? Erm, 51.9 to 48.1. to be precise. :) Leave won by 3.8% and not 2% as you keep peddling. :rolleyes: Edited November 2, 20195 yr by Freddie Kruger
