Changed to title to the one used in the article since it is less click-bait-y. Useful article that goes through some of the misinformation about the voting process

A No campaigner tried to give me a how to vote card, I told him I already know how to vote

I asked for one and put it in the bin.

One less piece of misinformation going to a gullible fool

i walked past a no campaigner who looked genuinely offended because i just shook my head as i walked past him when he tried handing me pamphlets. he started to say something then caught himself.

If such a passive interaction was enough to set that guy off, hes really not fit to be handing out anything near a polling booth to be honest

In their defence, they probably do need how to vote cards, because I'm sure a lot of the No voters are probably struggling to understand the instructions
