Oh man I kept waiting for a GE13 thread to show up, had no idea people were talking about it here!

So, what did everyone do! Did anyone vote? Volunteer? Polling agent? Campaign?

I couldn't vote this time around

So I volunteered as a polling agent at the High Comm in London instead. And on Sunday our society here did a results viewing party. Atmosphere was great, then... you know what happened. Lol.

Yeah I voted...probably spent the equivalent of a cheap AirAsia ticket to get to the consulate in the next state but it was alright.

Oh btw, did they have indelible ink in London?

*Nicholas92*

Nope, no indelible ink in London. In fact I think there was no indelible ink used in postal voting this time around, supposedly because the numbers were too small.

One of the best videos on gerrymandering I have ever come across:

And the best illustration of gerrymandering, in one pic. Really drives home exactly how it impacts the distribution of seats, especially when you compare is to the popular vote share.
