Place your bets NOW, closest gets a PRIZE!!

As most of you will know Vapers In Power has two candidates standing for election this Thursday. Liam Bryan @balbecdaze is standing in Kingswood, Bristol and Billy Marsden is standing in Barnsley East.

This election has been a fantastic opportunity to get the issues of the TPD and information about vaping front and centre with both the media and the general public, and it was all made possible by you guys, the vaping community who exceeded our expectations so much you enabled us to put forward not just one candidate, but two.

Now this country may be run on a one person, one vote system, but in this competition you get two goes each. Simply predict the number of votes our candidates are going to receive and the closest gets a prize.

The winners will each receive a small prize - a Vapers in Power badge.

NOT AN ENTRY - Just for clarification . . .

@Diche - Well is there any way to know a little more information about the election this Thursday . . . SO "We" can take a somewhat more educated guess . . .

Where is it being held (And - Yes, I can see it is across the pond, in the UK ;) ) . . . Is it Local or the National election . . . Who gets to vote for the person/people running for office the whole Country or just the people in that region . . . What is the normal/usual turnout for this election - Are we talking Hundreds/Thousands/Millions of people . . .

Any information "You" can provide would be more helpful, especially to make a realistic guess . . . Just Sayin' . . . :D

CHEERS MATE - TA ! ! !

The election count is now in full swing so the competition is now closing. But to give you a bit of background each Member of Parliament is elected by his local constituency which is about 40,000 only about half the eligible voters will bother to cast their ballot, so I think some of the guesses are rather high ;) we are really expecting numbers to be quite low. However tbh the counting of the votes is the fun bit, even a dozen votes would be fine, all the hard work has been about publicity and that won't be reflected in the vote.

Thank you for your patience :) Vapers In Power has had a really hectic time recently. So pleased we can finally announce the winners on here.

NancyR wins the Barnsley East guess (her guess of 5250 was the closest to 103)
LennyBanz wins the Kingswood guess (his guess of 6,000 was the closest to 49).

(Lenny would have won both prizes for his second guesses but unfortunately they were made after the competition had closed).

I'm pm'ing Nancy and Lenny now to ask for address details.

Thank you to everyone who took part
