    That's why Trump has the job of President, isn't it? The Democrats were unable to get their act together enough to find an electable candidate.

      But we know how the boys in blue treat other "sensitive" things.

      I would have thought, these days, all these places were covered by CCTV, however basic, and the truth would be visible within minutes, no?:scratch:

        CCTV inside a polling station? Given that most of them are held in schools, libraries, community centres etc, I'd suggest that is doubtful. Equally, I'd not be overly comfortable with CCTV operating in a polling station, at least where they could see the voting booths - your vote is a private, confidential thing and there should be no opportunity for anyone to get even close to working out who you voted for.

          Our votes are done in the town hall. There is CCTV in the entrance lobby and some of the rooms.

          I'd suggest that is the minority of cases - almost invariably around here it is a school that is used.
