To be honest, I've always viewed this as a win-win scenario, so I'm not all that bothered about the outcome. I am looking forward to Al's maps on this though. Tongue

If this passes, most people will probably still put a cross or tick instead of numbers on their ballot papers.

I'm currently predicting a 52%-48% victory for No.

Is that thing in your signature a genuine poster from the No campaign?  I guess it wouldn't surprise me if it was...

Why do you have to make a wise-ass comment in every thread you post in?

I've yet to see a serious and non partisan argument in favor of the no.

Arguments against electoral reform always takes people for idiots, and since they are, it works. The victorious No to MMP campaign in Ontario in 2007 consisted mostly of "PR ALLOES TEH NAZIS N TEH TALEBANS TO WINSZ SEASTS!!!".

It does.

Thatcher was more right-wing than Foot was left-wing.

Are the results going to be declared county-by-county?

Mike Smithson makes an interesting point:

Surely no one has suggested that the Liberals would have preferenced Labour in the 1950s? This campaign has been a carnival of stupid, but I think that would take the custard creams that get mentioned here on occasion.

Well, during the Gaitskell era maybe?

ICM
68% - NO
32% - YES

People aren't just telling Nick no, they're shouting it at him.

What are they telling Miliband? Smiley

Does anyone care what Miliband thinks of this?

Al, what are the plans for tomorrow night? Are we going to keep all the UK results to one thread, or to multiple threads for each election?

Angus Reid apparently says:

Yes - 42%
No - 58%

And of course, the No campaign has been nothing but honest, accurate, and sticking to the topic... *looks at your signature*... oh.

It seems that you always play the role of the junior spokesperson of the Left.
