General election 2010: the people's election posters

Sam Dahl, Leigh: 'This is a comment on the bizarre game-show feel of the whole election and the apparent lack of an option for real change' Photograph: Sam Dahl Photograph: guardian.co.uk Mike Woodier, Littlethorpe: 'Same old politics or not?' Photograph: Mike Woodier Photograph: guardian.co.uk Marshall Walker, Manchester: 'Be wary of becoming too occupied with voting someone out. You may lose sight of what you're letting in' Photograph: Marshall Walker Photograph: guardian.co.uk Tim Bradford, London: 'Sixty-one percent of registered voters actually voted in the 2005 general election. What would reformists and revolutionaries of previous centuries think of our apathy?' Photograph: Tim Bradford Photograph: guardian.co.uk Thomas Croft, Wirral: 'The Tories can spend £80,000 on a revamped logo design, but it's still the same old message' Photograph: Thomas Croft Photograph: guardian.co.uk Stan Madeley, London: 'My inspiration? My wife who recently ran into a Lib Dem official on the high street and came away with a large picture of Nick Clegg, which she now swoons over nightly' Photograph: Stan Madeley Photograph: guardian.co.uk Richard Evans, London: 'It's a uniquely exciting election, and has obvious parallels with a three-way shoot-out climax' Photograph: Richard Evans Photograph: guardian.co.uk Penelope Wakeham, Winchester Photograph: Penelope Wakeham Photograph: guardian.co.uk Nick Wright Photograph: Nick Wright Photograph: guardian.co.uk Keith Mottram, London : 'An unsubtle comment on the unspeakable aspect of our "democracy" – our unelected head of state' Photograph: Keith Mottram Photograph: guardian.co.uk Jon Egan, Liverpool: 'I think Labour has failed to exploit the Conservatives' greatest potential weakness – their inherent creepiness' Photograph: Jon Egan Photograph: guardian.co.uk Guy Denning, Finistere, France: 'If the public had a ballot option of "none of the above", we might see that they're not politically apathetic after all' Photograph: Guy Denning Photograph: guardian.co.uk Denby Richards, Windsor: 'As a lifelong Labour supporter this is a bit tongue-in-cheek. As Sarah seems to have humanised Gordon, we should appeal to public sympathy for her to get Labour re-elected' Photograph: Denby Richards Photograph: guardian.co.uk Darren Maughan, Kent Photograph: Darren Maughan Photograph: guardian.co.uk Daniel Gosling, Brighton: 'There is a real chance the Green Party will win in Brighton, but it is always worth reminding people that victory is contingent upon them turning up to vote' Photograph: Daniel Gosling Photograph: guardian.co.uk Caitriona McGilvray, Kingston upon Thames Photograph: Caitriona McGilvray Photograph: guardian.co.uk Mike Murphy, Halifax: 'My inspiration was living through the divisive mean-spirited times of Margaret Thatcher and seeing the same old wolf in sheep's clothing, tricking the British electorate again' Photograph: Mike Murphy Photograph: guardian.co.uk Ben Serbutt, London: 'I saw the original version of this poster and was quite bothered by it as the Tories are presenting themselves via a slick PR and poster campaign, as something they are not – ie inclusive. So here is my modified poster' Photograph: Ben Serbutt Photograph: guardian.co.uk Alex Bell, Halifax: 'Ironically, it was a dearth of inspiration in any of the three main parties that led to my submission' Photograph: Alex Bell Photograph: guardian.co.uk Jo Udall, London: 'Nevermind, it will all be over soon' Photograph: Jo Udall Photograph: guardian.co.uk
