Mandelsnake advocates a YES vote. Well that has confirmed my opinion then. NO it is.

I've yet to see a "Say yes to AV" poster/banner/leaflet, 100's of "No" ones though  confused:

You can of course vote Yes and then only tick 1 candidate   razz:

True, but other voters will list their preferences. Personally I vote for one candidate, where the others come is of no interest to me. I shall be voting against AV.

YORKSHIRE delivered an overwhelming “no” verdict in the additional vote referendum as the country sent a clear message that could kill off any voting reform for a generation.

There is no truth in the rumour that special voting papers offering a choice between
"Is it your round?"
Answer
"Aye alw-reet" OR "Nay Lad" were used

20% of the electorate have spoken. Still, at least it's a bloody nose for Knobhead Clegg.
