I voted twice in, I think, 1974 but not intentionally. My father had always voted for me with a proxy vote as I had always been away deep sea since 1952. I had been in Dover a couple of years and my landlady in Victoria Park must have put me on the Electoral Roll. I was going up to Manchester on leave from the ferries on an Election day and called in my local polling station on my way to the railway station and voted.
I got up to Manchester where my father told me that he had voted for me with my proxy vote.
I don't think it would have made much difference in the results.
