Article Body:

​As you will be able to tell from the update above on the election, things are progressing at pace with the polls open at 7am (Thursday) in the local government elections. 

Here is where we need your help. 

Do you have a dog? Do you have a darth vadar mask? And are you registered to vote? 

We are asking our Twitter and Facebook followers to take photos outside polling stations and help us get one of two hashtags going viral. 

So, could you take your dog along to vote and take a picture of him/her outside? Post it on Twitter and tag @aberdeenshire with the hashtag #dogsatpollingstations. 

Or don a darth vadar mask/star wars tshirt and tag us in your selfie after you have cast your vote with #maythefourthbewithyou. Because, after all, it is Star Wars Day. 

Or even, dress your dog up as Yoda and tag both #dogsatpollingstations #maythefourthbewithyou – get both of them in! 

Your help is reminding people to use their vote is really appreciated.
