Yes it is terrible, people were unable to vote in Manchester, Leeds, Sheffield, London etc. The doors were just shut on people who had been queuing for hours. I don't understand why they can't have the polling stations open for two days, like they do in South Africa and they have less voters than the UK. With me being away at university, I registered for a postal vote, so I haven't had any problems. However in York they apparently lost over 100 postal votes.
This whole election has been a disaster. No party has been able to achieve a majority, if there is to be any coalitions, it looks like it will have to be made up of 3 or 4 parties, which is a bit out of hand, especially for the UK, who isn't used to coalitions. People haven't been able to vote, votes have been lost. Some places have had out of date voting registers, so first time voters have been unable to vote. My neighbour registered to vote for the Afron constituency three months ago and he walked to the polling station at 7 yesterday morning and they hadn't listed him, so he wasn't able to vote. This election has been awful, I won't be surprised if it is recalled. We're supposed to be a first world country, yet we have an election similar to that of a third world country. This election has been an embarrassment.
