    All the people who brought pens with them to vote because they thought AEC workers were going to change their vote are absolutely something we need to be concerned about moving forward.

      I … did not know this was a thing. I heard someone in the line mention they had brought their own and thought it quirky. JFC, what a cheap and meaningless way to feel like you’re in control of your world.

        Oh it’s a thing. My mum worked for AEC on the day and said lots of people in her area brought pens with them. I handed out HTV cards on the day and saw a few people come up to the no campaign people to ask them if their votes were legal because they did it in pencil.
