I was wrong, I misunderestimated the mendacity of the electoral shambles. Either DRS can't even count spoiled ballot papers or a false figure was released to the mainstream in the hope that when they released the true scale of this fiasco no one would notice. Surely they realised this figure on Friday - so why the deliberate misunderestimate until now. People have been talking about 'up to a hundred thousand spoiled ballot papers. The real figure just released is 142,000 spoiled ballots. Out of an electorate of about 2 million. Blatant mainstream news management - PRopaganda.

Now if the 'Vote Nobody' campaign wants to claim all the normal spoiled ballot papers as deliberate, or even a slight increase, then that still equates to the biggest electoral fraud in history, and i have to point out that campaign wasn't active or supported up here. This is worse than Florida 2000 where so many blacks were denied their vote. A politician yesterday said the UN should be involved in future Scottish elections - I second that. And let's have some peacekeepers on the streets to stop Labour politicans like Tom McCabe physically attacking SNP supporters. This is definitely a Labour party fraud - their minister commissioned this, their Lord sat as directors on the company that misrun it, and yet they still lost it and have the audacity to mount legal actions against their loss. it comes in the context of hundreds of thousands of postal votes missing, and first hand witness reports of people being denied their votes despite registering before the deadline.

And you know, apart from showing up the blatant corruptness of the Labour party, it also highlights their incompetence. They rig an election, get caught, and still don't win. And there is a simple reason for that - they tried to shaft the opposition but shafted their own voters more. At the polling station I attended there was a Labour party supporter there only during the busy periods, and he was only spouting propaganda and handing out propaganda. Throughout the day, I was there with the candidate I was supporting and with up to two other supporters. We weren't spouting propaganda, we were explaining the voting system and handing out leaflets explaining how to vote but even by walking towards voters I only had ten seconds or so to explain the system. Which is more than they got from the sole council employee inside the polling station. People who didn't support the SNP walked by us and so wouldn't have known how to vote. And I hate to say this, but nyone still voting labour in Scotland has to be below average IQ. At least 50% of the people I asked admitted not understanding how to vote, the BBC reports an election worker elsewhere reporting 60%. Now I will be collecting testimony from people who wanted to vote SNP but were denied the right to vote, and who tried to vote SNP but think they made a mistake, cos this will drag on.

To be honest, I found it easy to vote but I am an arrogant yet smart bastard, I just don't accept the argument you have to pass an IQ test to express a democratic choice. Equal rights for idiots, same rules apply.
