If you are lucky enough to live in the greatest city on earth that is London, please don't fail to use your vote today!!!
"Well it's finally arrived. The day of reckoning. The day that Londoners can
choose who is going to become their Mayor for the next four years.
Obviously, I've been following the mayoral campaign for quite some time
as London's Transport and the London Underground is a key part of the
Mayor's responsibility and also as three million people use the Tube in
London every single day it's bound to be of importance."
"Writing in thelondonpaper today, Kate Egglestone reviews Vote Match:
I have found various tools on the internet to help me decide who to vote for. The best by far has been VoteMatch (www.votematch.co.uk). The website is set up to tell you which candidate you agree with most. I was surprised by the result it gave me. All of the mayoral candidates have answered a set of questions (yes, there are more than two candidates). The questions are designed to bring out the differences in their policies (again, yes, Ken and Boris have policies). The website then tells you, in a very helpful bar graph, which of the candidates you should support."Get out there and vote today!
