General Election Day: a megathread (self.scotland)

First things first: bring your ID!

Polls are open, voting booths are setup, counts are being prepared, Ruth Davidson is peeking at your postal votes already, party campaigning is suspended, and the media are obsessed with dogs at polling stations.

And even if you think it's shit and pointless, remember your forebearers literally have died for your right to wield that pencil, cross that box, and chose. You can chose to spoil, you can chose a different government, in Scotland you can chose a real oposition, and in certain seats you can choose to believe in the ghost of Charles Kennedy. And Tories can choose to stay home, save lives, and protect the NHS.

Who's going early? Anyone got a queue? Any predictions for Scottish seats? (we're down to 57) Anyone know any candidates?

Been, voted. No queue, but a gorgeous old kirk. Predictions: 30 SNP, 24 Labour, 3 LD. And I work with (not closely) a family party candidate, boak. Gonna be funny seeing his face get 123 votes at the count
