Getting in on the popular trend on X, Niall Cook took a picture of Margo outside the polling station.

The pair made their way to vote at roughly 8am, with Margo somewhat of a veteran when it comes to posing for photos on voting days.

两人大约在上午8点进行投票，而在投票日拍摄照片时，玛格有点退伍军人。

"She’s a bit of an old hand when it comes to voting, as she’s taken part in lots of #dogsatpollingstations before," Mr Cook said.

库克说：“在投票方面，她有点老了，因为她以前参加了许多#DogSatPollingstations。”

"So for her it was probably a case of ‘oh really, not this again’."

“因此，对她来说，这可能是'哦，真的不是这个''。”

On why people should vote, Mr Cook said: "For me, I’d say that you’re talking your dog for a walk anyway, so why not combine it with your civic duty?"

库克先生说，人们为什么要投票，对我来说，无论如何，我还是要在散步，所以为什么不将其与您的公民职责结合起来呢？”

Ms Cade, 42, voted in Rothwell, Northamptonshire, at around 8.30am and said: "(Yoshi) was hoping that by showing off his photo on his social media, it would encourage others to get out and vote, even if you’re not sure who to vote for, we say go with your heart and who you feels cares the most about the area you live in rather than what’s going on nationwide."
