Letter: Dogged voters
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Sir: Further to "Power to the pooches" (11 April), dogs do have the chance to vote.
Dogs Today magazine researched and printed each party's dogifesto and is encouraging every dog in Britain to use its right to suffrage. All votes received are eaten by a life-size Ballot Boxer, then displayed on our Bones-for-Votes swing-o-meter.
Labour are currently romping home like a typical Lab - they have 51 per cent of the votes. Lib Dems and Tories have been scrapping, but Lib Dems are a cold nose ahead at 26 per cent with the Conservatives in the dog house with only 2.3 per cent.
Over 635 dogs have already voted and we'll keep our Ballot Boxer open until the human version closes. Unfortunately, due to over zealous house training, some ballot papers have been spoiled.
