Labour Leader Election Exit Poll, Who Did You Vote For?

[ToraToraTora]

I went for Jezza.

I never suspected you had such strong left-wing principles, TTT.

[ToraToraTora]

I don't, it is the best way to keep Labour in opposition for as long as possible.

[Baldric]

Including myself, at least 8 family and friends voted for JC. Good Luck to him!

[Baldric]

Agree 100% with T³

[jim360]

Funnily enough I actually knew that you weren't a closet leftie really.

If Corbyn does win it will make for an interesting few years ahead, anyway...

[jourdain2]

I rather suspect that TTT somehow managed to slip through the stringent precautions Labour announced to ensure a representative vote. I apologise profusely if I am wrong in that suspicion. :)

[ludwig]

They rejected my application to register for the vote on the grounds that I exhibited some left wing tendencies and wouldn't promise not to vote for anyone with the initials JC.

[ToraToraTora]

well they nevr really had any actual precautions, stringent or otherwise, essentially it's an own goal by labour. If you are on the electoral register and they have no knowledge of you then you won't appear on their radar. I would be very interested in their exclusion criteria for those excluded.

// I would be very interested in their exclusion criteria for those excluded. //

I think it's pretty close to the ones I've summarised, but there are two groups of people they wanted to exclude..

a) Too left wing and might vote for Corbyn because he's great.
b) Too right wing and might vote for Corbyn because he's useless.

[ToraToraTora]

yes but how do they identify either? They may know about a few obvious ones but the majority would surely be anonymous.

[ludwig]

^ Yes, which is why the whole thing was farcical.

[bazwillrun]
