    Absolutely blew me away both sides handing out “how to vote” pamphlets. For elections it makes more sense but to write a single word in a box is insane

      Why? Polling has suggested a large percentage of voters will remain undecided up until the moment they vote. Having representatives there to influence and persuade voters is of strategic importance for both the Yes and No campaigns.

      I hope you don’t actually think “how to vote” volunteers are there simply to help people understand how voting works.
