    So let me get the “family voting” accusations straight. An unaccountable “monitoring group” have been observing elections for over 10 years. Not once have they seen more than 1% of votes be possibly affected by family voting. On this one instance they manage to see it affecting 12% of votes but neither report anything to the electoral officers on duty, whose job it is to enforce this regulation, or make any of their observations public?

    And it just so happens to give Farage another anti-muslim, anti-leftist talking point.

    Hmm.

    Also voter coordination is not illegal. Ballots themselves must remain confidential but it is not against the Ballot Secrecy Act to tell someone how you’re going to vote or who you should think they should vote.
