AV Referendum

I voted about two hours ago - YES of course. But I thought I wouldn't because I misplaced my polling card. Turns out you don't need it. Surprisingly, I didn't need to prove my identity either, although I did take my passport and bank statement along just in case. The ladies at the polling station were the same from previous years - pretty as ever. I've voted every year since 2008 but unfortunately tonight's will be in a losing cause. Oh well...
