It would be sad if the polling stations go. Election Days are real local community events. There are fetes, people stroll down to their local polling booths to vote, buy cakes and jams, hand out how to vote and scrutineer. To me this is the best part of the whole election cycle. I even saw two of the candidates! Not sure how electronic voting will help the punters distinguish the Liberal Democrats from the Liberals. The DLP from the ALP and figure out where the preferences for the Animal Justice Party are going.
