No vote is wasted!

Even if your preferred candidate doesn't get a majority, your vote shows other candidates that they dont have universal support. With our system, the total number of votes for other people usually exceed those for the winner.

I've said this here before. Mum was a Tory, Dad was Labour or Liberal.
Sometimes they would agree to not vote because they would only cancel each other out.

But Dad would always vote anyway. It was years before Mum found out. She found out by seeing him when she sneaked over to vote.

Always use your vote!

The single most serious illness infecting the body politic in the UK, or elsewhere, is the philosophy – if one can call it that – which says "Why bother voting. We can't change anything".

Democratic elections sometimes produce unexpected & unwelcome results.

Same as non-democratic elections where the electorate are ordered who to vote for.

The more people who vote UKIP the likelier the chance of a Labour majority.

In the real world I don't know anyone who supports UKIP, I know more Greens than Kippers.

If everyone who said they were going to vote Liberal at the last election had actually voted Liberal there would have been a very different outcome. Statistics show that people revert to type once the ballot paper is in their hands.
