Doh!

I have to admit I was a bit taken aback by the size of the ballot paper when I went to vote in the European Parliament election yesterday. Apparently UKIP, who appear last on the ballot paper - it's done in alphabetical order - have complained that some people who wished to vote for them have been unable to find where to put their cross because the polling station staff fold the form before they give it to you (so that when you have finished and refold it, it will fit into the slot in the ballot box) and it would seem some voters don't realise they have to fully unfold it to see all the candidate parties. I'm not sure what this says about the intelligence of some would-be UKIP voters...
