So if there are local elections near you today have you voted and if not why not ?
If you are on polling duty you must know a few things. What are the folio numbers on the polling slips for. As the voting is private it can't be to track the voter but it must be for something?

Is it just to show the slip is genuine in the case of the poll being compromised? I have always wondered but never asked
