Been and done my bit for democracy...

have scratched my mark upon the scraps of paper with the blunt pencil provided. I've also been to Aldi for wine and chocolate, I have a feeling I'm going to feel the need. My palms are sweating. This election scares me.

Well, OK! I hope you enjoy it, it promises to be the most unpredictable election since the mid seventies. I'm staying up late, well plied with drink and drugs chocolate.

whooow, those stations close sooo late! ours usually open from around 7AM-1PM and we get clear results by around 8PM or so, i won't be staying up to follow this one! probably because yours is ona weekday, ours are always on sundays.

They're always on Thursdays here, since time immemorial. :o) I love the election coverage, with the presenters caught mid-sandwich and mugs of tea and all the daft glitches. I'll be flipping from the srz-BBC stuff to the C4 alternative election night, too, which promises to be pretty good.

Whatever happens, it's always an *event*.
