Although one NEWS HACK CLICHE of the past week has been
HEAVY VOTING. As with EXIT POLLS such accounts are all too reliant on the anecdotal approach. At my place of work turnout was light, and at my place of voting there was perhaps one other voter there, though voting may have been a little more concentrated before I went. One who had to make a deadline following me might have assumed voter apathy.
So perhaps the voting was heavy; but I wouldn't be surprised if, as with past "HEAVY VOTING" elections, turnout was about the same as before.
