Re: Yay! Party time!
Back in the 1970 election, some of the top year at my boarding school were 18 and eligible to vote. One of the masters gave them a lift to the polling station. The master said something about stopping off and buying them a pint of beer on the way back. (Am pretty sure that was a joke. The school policy was very much against alcohol, even if legal.)
Somehow, and I have never worked out how, a complaint was put in that he had attempted to bribe them. The police came and asked some questions - they decided no further investigation was needed.
Have no idea whether that allegation ended up being counted.
