Ok so if I want to 'disenfranchise' a locality I have a choice, Hit the power, so everyone is powered-out, Hit the convenient little green boxes full of wires if I just want to knock out a street or 2, Cut the lines from a pole, for a more specific action.
Of course this would only be really worthwhile in a marginal seat, but it could be easier than hijacking postal votes and a lot easier than misplacing a ballot box.

If Government really wants 'the people' to show an interest in politics then bring in PR so every vote counts, and then count every vote. Maybe that is finally a legitimate use for the National ID card they are so keen on.
