What is telling? Telling is the action of sitting outside a polling station and asking voters to give us their polling number as they enter the building to vote. These electoral register numbers can be entered directly into our system using a mobile phone or written down on telling pads. What is the purpose of telling? Collecting the electoral register numbers of voters who have voted allows us to save time by not knocking on their door later in the day. Many voters do not decide who they will vote for until they are in the polling station. A labour teller sitting outside helps remind voters to vote Labour in the last minutes before they cast their vote. Sign up for telling to help us reach a Labour victory!
