Best answers:

• I voted Conservatives. I'd rather not have them or Labour if I'm honest, but something about David Cameron just makes my flesh crawl.
  Interesting that 14% of people don't want the Lib Dems to win... *wonders why*
• I've voted for Labour. We've had them for 13 years, and I couldn't bare another 5 or so. Definately time for change.
• Tories. The idea of George Osbourne as Chancellor is one of the most frightening prospects I've ever known in politics.
• which country have you all be living in . in the last 50 years every time labour in we nearly end up bankrupt as a country and the cons pay off the bill plus put money in the bank for the country. we as a country have be warned that we are very close not to borrowing any more money so whos going to lend the country any money if lab/libs get in.
• I voted Liberal Democrats, they are everything that is wrong with Labour 10 times worse in my opinion, the prospect of a hung parliament scares me as it will give them power to make deals with people. I would rather see either the Conservatives or Labour get an overall majority than a hung parliament.
• There's absolutely no way I would want to see Labour win... or the Conservatives... or Liberal Democrats... or UKIP... and there's no one else standing in my area so I guess I'm gonna be unhappy whatever happens.
  The whole electoral system needs to change so that we can get a government that represents us, not one that goes (or could go) against the majority in virtually every decision.
  Maybe we should be able to vote on individual policies, rather than for a mixed bag of policies from a single party. Maybe politicians should be forced to call for referenda on certain issues and obey the consensus of opinion instead of thinking that they can act as they please.
  The party/representation system we have at the moment makes a mockery of the concept of democracy. Until that changes and the people have some kind of say over how their country is governed (rather than a token vote for someone who will falsely represent us), then we will not have a fair, effective government.
• I really dont want the Tories in power, I dont trust David Cameron. Nick Clegg really doesnt have a clue. I trust Gordon Brown to get us totally out of the recession and I dont want anyone else messing up the economy.
• Please don't let David Cameron be prime minister. I can't afford to emigrate!!!
• I voted Labour out. I'm A-political. Too much of one thing is generally a bad thing in life and I'm extending that philosophy to politics. Note, proportional representation, similar to a hung parliament has worked ok in the Welsh Assembly. No grief, so what is to fear?
• I'm an AbC...Anyone but Conservative...mainly because I am also Anyone but Cameron...
• You should have added the SNP,because if they win,the oil,s all Scottish and Britain,s deep in debt with no way of ever paying it back.
• No matter what the result, I'm leaving this wrecked country as soon as I can organise it . . . and I suspect I won't be the only one.
  Perhaps the last person to leave could turn out the lights ???
• I'm an ABC too... anyone but Clegg
• I just do not trust "Call me Dave" and Ghost Face Gideon aka George Osbourne. the latter has been strangely silent in the run up to 6 May, wonder why? I have very little respect for any politican at present as none of them are really telling us what horrors they have in store, but I am old enough to recall the reign of Thatcher and it was a terrible time.Hence do not want to see a Conservative vicTORY.
• This is NOT about one government versus the other, it's about money and how much people think they are going to get out of whomever is elected.
  It's sad that so many people cannot see that benefits, tax credits and services need to be cut to reduce the national debt.
  Labour has been robbing from one family to give to another for 13 years and now nobody wants the party to end. Guess what folks, cuts are coming no matter who you decide to elect.

  I wouldn't worry about that, they'll either be switched off in an effort to save money, or cut off because there's no money to pay the bill.
