I just wonder on how informed most people's votes are snoopster - 21/04/2004 11:18:44 AM

In what way?

I just wonder how many people will vote with an informed opinion on it, and how many will just go along with tabloid headlines on this vote.

The same can be said of general elections, which is why the whole people are too uneducated on the issue to vote appropriately doesn't wash with me. How many people know enough about defence, or health or education to vote appropriately in a General Election. Some of the comments made by some, such as Niel Kinnock, have been outrageous.

True, to an extent. But I would say most people tend to vote on how much a party is a general reflection of their views rather than on one or two key issues...basically, they are voting in a Government that will, over all, do the best job of governing in a way they like.
