The election results for the European Parliament will start coming in at 5pm Eastern Time (22:00 British Summer Time).
Many voters all over Europe are making their choices today, in the UK the voting was on Thursday.
Polling shows the United Kingdom Independence Party at about 30 percent popular support in spite of an intense campaign to discredit it by the major parties and the media.
Everything from the race card to the employment of UKIP leader Nigel Farage's wife as his secretary has been thrown on the wall in hopes of something sticking.
The immigration police just happened to raid the business of a man identified as a UKIP supporter one week before this election.
Many of the people in England have woken up to the fact that all the major parties including the one that calls itself "Conservative" have been selling them out to the European Union and letting the immigration faucet go wide open.
People in the UK are now having their say against the political establishment including the Conservative Party Establishment that deposed Margaret Thatcher from power in 1990 because she stood up for British sovereignty and the Pound against the EU and Euro......
(I HAVE LINKED TO THE BBC VOTE 2014 PAGE WHICH WILL BE FOCUSED ON THE LOCAL ELECTION RESULTS THIS AFTERNOON, THEY DO NOT SHOW THE NATIONAL ELECTION STRENTGH OF UKIP, BECAUSE UKIP IS NOT STRONG ENOUGH YET TO FULLY CONTEST THOUSANDS OF LOCAL SEATS IN ENGLAND)
Actual title: Most of EU votes in election finale
Wonder how it got changed like that, with all those caps and stuff?
Strange. Has Europe not co-opted the American vote stealing apparatus? Or were the numbers so badly not in the commies favor they couldn’t even rig it?
I wanted to focus on UKIP in the UK because UKIP’s rise against the Uniparty over there is the big story today.....
Something needs to be done about the Uniparty in this country.
Geert Wilders party in the Netherlands has lost according to en exit poll from the main Dutch news broadcaster (NOS).
“The Telegraph” in the UK says it’s because Wilders linked himself to Marine Le Pen and the National Front in France instead of Nigel Farage and UKIP.
In regard to Ukip, literally thousands of tweets this week about UKIP being “fascists and Racists”, and how UNBELIEVEIVABLE! it is that anyone would vote for “Fascists and racists”.
And that is just in English.
That smacks of an OFA-style coordinated campaign by the twitter bots.
Sounds like what the GOP does to the TEA Party
"The alarm bells are ringing ever more loudly. When factory supervisor Peter Smyth, 60, from Rainham, Essex, voted for Ukip, it was the first time he had voted since he backed Margaret Thatcher in the 80s. "The older you get the more you realise politics is just a game show. Ukip seem more direct, less bullshit, more real," he said. "I'll be voting Ukip next year not because I want them in government but because I want to scare the government."
I am constantly amazed that there seem to be no candidates who, once elected, are so disgusted with the system that they resign and spill the beans. The rewards for staying must be stupendous, and/or the punishment for resigning must be terrible.
Hope the same thing happens here to the rinos
That guy has finally figured it out.
The talk of major differences between the major political parties is a show. They all do the same thing.
The D’s and R’s all wanted “healthcare reform” to make everyone buy higher priced coverage to bailout insurers and hospitals.
Romney did it first in MA, then Obama nationwide. The debate Republicans fuel with their emotions is one to modify Obamacare. Statements most of them make about getting rid of it mask their ultimate intention to keep Obamacare in modified form.
“You must realize that it’s all compromise...and the problems are so overrated”
-Petula Clark-”Don’t Sleep In The Subway”-1967
Sounds familiar.
Milliband is being criticized for running a bad campaign because UKIP is now taking Labour voters into its camp.
Perot pulled out of the campaign deliberately for a time in 1992 to tamp his vote totals down so he wouldn’t win. He was in to help Clinton.
Farage and UKIP are playing no such game. They are in it to win and might do that today beating all the other parties, not allowing Labour to win.
Please excuse a personal remark, but after 54 years a registered Republican I registered as an Independent a few months ago. Have others done the same? It appears to me that the Republican party has left Americanism and has become a party of self seeking degenerates.
It's important that constitutional conservatives get as high a percentage of votes as possible.
In my state I can vote for any candidate even as an Independent. At least in the primary and final election.
I voted Republican since my first Presidential election in 1988, and Romney will be my last GOP vote. I left the Republican't Party after the McCain cluster flop and am now a registered non-affiliated independent. The American political system is as rigged and scripted as a WWE wrestling match.
Keep dreaming. Reagan was an anomaly and the Ruling Class Uniparty has taken careful steps to keep that from ever happening again.
Is there an option to ‘spoil’ your ballot paper in a US election like there is in a British one? The trouble with not voting is that the pollies assume it is because you were too lazy. At least if you turn up and write ‘fu’ or ‘none of the above’ you are conveying a clear message that you don’t believe that any of the candidates deserved your vote.
