First things first: bring your ID!

Polls are open, voting booths are setup, counts are being prepared, Ruth Davidson is peeking at your postal votes already, party campaigning is suspended, and the media are obsessed with dogs at polling stations.

And even if you think it’s shit and pointless, remember your forebearers literally have died for your right to wield that pencil, cross that box, and chose. You can chose to spoil, you can chose a different government, in Scotland you can chose a real oposition, and in certain seats you can choose to believe in the ghost of Charles Kennedy. And Tories can choose to stay home, save lives, and protect the NHS.

Who’s going early? Anyone got a queue? Any predictions for Scottish seats? (we’re down to 57) Anyone know any candidates?

Heading there now as I’m doing other chores get it out the way. Mines at the community centre in the middle of my street so no excuses.

Glad then the carpet bombing of my letter box from the lab and snp guys saying only they can beat the other one while showing zero policies

Surely the SNP know they shouldn’t be debasing themselves with that shit. They’ll be showing LibDem level graphs next

Sadly not.

The graphs were there but at least didn’t look overly libdemmy.

It’s kinda funny both candidates are current 1st term councilors and look about 12.

My current mp is retiring well today

Been, voted. No queue, but a gorgeous old kirk. Predictions: 30 SNP, 24 Labour, 3 LD. And I work with (not closely) a family party candidate, boak. Gonna be funny seeing his face get 123 votes at the count

I had a postal vote and voted a week or so ago!! Kinda feel a bit left out today! I think the SNP might take a battering.
