Banterous Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Wings over Scotland have already posted an article explaining why it's a non-issue. F**k me mate. Hammyton's post are about as sensible as some of the paranoid sh**e on that website. I agree though that it's yet another conspiracy theory from the 45 defeated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or at least Doug Daniel, an actual counting agent of Yes Scotland, has shown a modicum of decorum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QPSAFalkirkFirm Posted September 25, 2014 Author Share Posted September 25, 2014 No. Its very relevant. Everything is done under scrutiny by all interested parties. Its quite possible to see whats going on at all times. Announcing it prior to voting closing would be a big issue. This isn't. At all. Still not quite there old fruity. Her comments were after the polls closed but she was relating to the actual event which had happened prior to the count. The sampling carried out prior to the polls closing only records the signature and dob. Any information gathered about the vote cast is illegal. These samples go on over the period running up to polling day. They are put in a voting box, transferred to the counting house and counted along with all the other ballot papers after the 10pm deadline.

Crùbag Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Scotsman forced to pay £6k to the Rev for their WoS slander. Another nail in the Daily Liar's coffin. http://www.thedrum.com/news/2014/09/25/scotsman-pays-out-wings-over-scotland-over-accusations-against-founder-rev-stuart The Scotsman has paid out more than £6,000 in damages to Scottish news website Wings Over Scotland owner the Rev. Stuart Campbell in a settlement over an article published earlier this year. The complaint referred to an article published on 13 June by Euan McColm and Tom Peterkin, which claimed the Rev. Stuart Campbell, founder of the website, had used the service to encourage “nationalist campaigners” to photograph opponents in a bid to publicly identify them.

There isn a political party in the british isles that hasnt done this. The yes campaign did this as well. They all do it. I suggest that when you join the SNP in your post referendum humiliation huff that you ask to be a vote observer at the next count and you'll see how its done. Its clear that you don't have a clue. Some nationalist gimp has had a minor tantrum and made a complaint, clearly. Its correct to investigate that. And, absolutely nothing will happen. Because she did absolutely nothing wrong.

Tio Pepe Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Erm no! The ballot papers are checked for date of birth and signature. Mary Pitcaithly explains that the document must be laid face down so no-one can see the x. To do that is illegal. Meanwhile in the real world............

Because she did absolutely nothing wrong. Except the TV clip clearly has her saying that the BT group had indications of how the vote was going from the postal votes. Which is contrary to the law. That makes it illegal.You seem moderately intelligent, if somewhat limited in your views. Why can't you understand the difference between a law being broken and a politician inadvertently blowing the whistle on her chums. If her statement is correct then a statute law has been broken which is a criminal offence hence why Inspector Knacker has been called in. I've no doubt Five will put an end to it all but if it means Little Miss Smarty Pants is on the naughty step for a while it's a decent consolation. Life long supporter. Can't get any enough balloons and leaflets, 'cos that's all there is to it. Right? Personally can't be bothered with anyone who has mustered 40,000 posts on a football forum.

Confidemus Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 You have to laugh at all the howls of derision and denial from Team No. Forelock tugging has almost become a hobby with your average No voter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SodjesSixteenIncher Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 So let me get this right, it's one of those things that isn't really allowed but every c**t does? Fair enough, happens in every industry I'm sure. Problem is if someone's thick enough to go on TV and talk about doing something illegal. Would be like Jose Mourinho announcing in a post match press conference that they've agreed terms with some player that has 18 months on his contract. Everyone knows this goes on, but you don't brag about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you actually think this is any sort of a big deal then fair enough. Its not. If she had said anything prior to the close of polling then it might be. But she didn't.

madwullie Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Not that I particularly care about this, but sampling the votes pre count and before voting day would allow one side (or both) to target specific demographics based on the results of these samples. IMO this is the main issue here, and whether both sides did (or could) do it is immaterial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO this is the main issue here, and whether both sides did (or could) do it is immaterial. Ive never liked postal voting for a variety of reasons. But thats certainly one of them. Its definitely the dodgiest or potentially dodgiest part of the voting system these days. The rest of it is absolutely watertight. Vote, into sealed ballot box while being witnessed, boxes taken under observation to count where they are then opened in front of hordes of wankers who have the potential to be utterly outraged if anything is remotely amiss. Its as good a ystem as you'll get. Not beyond being knobbled if you go to extravagent lengths,but in this country, its very good and very fair.
