Either that, or the scots are a bit thick.
All they had to do was put a X next to the party of their choice, and on another paper all they had to do was put a 1,2,3 etc for the candidate of their local councillor choice.
It said quite clearly what was required.
So the SNP won the election by one seat? Parliament will decide the first minister, but would the first minister be different with the extra votes?
the Scots aint that thick Em……. :twisted:
I think you will find it was to do with the postal voting system that this has occured. Most of them placed legitimate votes but the counting system (dunno if its computer or manual) fecked it up.
The scots voted alright…. they always do.

Oh, was that a ballot box I pissed in last night after a few beverages? Sorry for ruining 100,000 BNP votes, Emma.
Don’t worry Tommy, everybody else pissed on the BNP ballot papers as well.
Oh, whew. I think I may piss on the actual BNP candidates next time.
They’d probably like that Tommy. I saw a bunch of BNP supporters invigilating a vote count on the TV. They were an unpleasant bunch of tattooed thugs by the look of them. Dirty looking with all the tattoos around their necks etc. They look as if they could all do with being pissed on.

There was a computer malfunction (New Labour’s fault), but how hard is it to put a X beside one set of party names, another beside a candidate and write down 1-7 on the other ballot paper?
This education X3 is a farce :D

5 May, 2007 at 9:40 am #269096The problem with the Scottish ballot paper is that collectively, the Scots are a bunch of drunken semi-literate clowns that can barely write on a good day.
Asking them to make a decision on omething as complicated as writing a number down on one side of a piece of paper and putting a simple ”X” on another is clearly stretching their intellectual abilities beyond the breaking point.
The amazing thing is that only 100,000 got it wrong!!!
