I, too, can understand jaycat's point about modernising the voting system .... yet I feel there is something very sociable about joining throngs of like-minded, motivated people - rather than sitting in judgement at a computer, isolated from the real world.
However, when I say 'throngs', I may be slightly exaggerating my personal experience. There were more officials than there were voters at our polling station ... but we did speak to each other!!
Oh, and the local MP who has been giving me grief recently got her come-uppence, tee hee *g*
