Vote, Vote, Vote 2

I know this sort of thing is undignified and rightly earns your disapproval, but, it seems, my previous post on this matter has failed to have the desired effect. A loyal fan emails me thusly - 'Bryan, I know you have better things to do with your time but can't you get your troops to give you a bit of a bunk up in the polls, category 19 - best post ever? Your score is ridiculously low just now.'
Here is the place, I think. Get to it, troops. Or don't.

    I did cast my vote your direction for Best of British, I think it may have been. It was all a bit confusing though and I'm not sure I can bring myself to go through it all again. If you do get elected, I'd like to know what you are going to do about restoring the racial purity of Britain.

    Done.


    Internet ronin, you should read the transcripts of Thomas Babington Macaulay, 1st Baron Macaulay during the debates on the Great Reform, the early and often was his fear and used the USA as the example. Then as now it was multiple different polling booths provided the answer.

    I would also like to know if you will be able to provide any answers as to why there seems to be two hours of that shite comedy, Two Pints of Lager, on BBC3 every night for the past many months.

    Elberry, how many would you like to vote for? Bryan - good stuff. You're already zooming back into contention.

    My part in this election scam is now complete for the day. I'll try to remember to help rig the vote for you tomorrow as well. I love the smell of democracy in the morning.

    Well, you're in the lead now, Bryan. So don't let up on campaigning.

    It's in the bag, Bryan. I and the last six generations of Burnets just voted for you.

    Now you can thank me, too. I figured it out. But I do expect a free beer party in exchange, as campaigners used to do for those who gave 'em their votes (see "Pickwick Papers").
