You do not need the card to be able to vote - if you turn up and you are on the electoral list you can vote (it is just a little more hassle).

To be honest, I am surprised at how little time is given to get everything ready. Each constituancy has 30 days (or 21 working days) to collect nominations and deposits from those wishing to stand, print the ballot papers, send out the ballot cards or ballot papers to those registered to vote, wait for the return of the ballot papers from those registered to vote by post and set up all the polling stations (paperwork, booths, etc.)!

I havent researched them enough.
I gues some things I would want happening is:
- Better public transport.
- Lower or abolish Student fees.
- Better health system.
- More work done to tackle crime.
- Stop criminals being let out 2 weeks after they've been sent down.
So whoever sorts that out, I'l go for that I think.

I guess the closest fit to that would be the LibDems with Conservative second and Labour last.
