Queuing at my polling station in Tooting before the doors opened and still queuing at 11am. #UKGE2024

Exercised the franchise here in West Oxon as lunch time. Steady stream of voters. LibDem and Labour tellers outside cheerfully cooperating on taking poll card numbers so as not to hold people up. Tory teller sitting on his folding chair six feet away, looking down at his clipboard.

dumb question, is a teller someone you tell how you voted?

They’re party reps who sit outside polling stations and take your electoral number when you’ve voted. They cross it off a list so you’re not contacted again for the GOTV op and they can see you’re a regular voter for future elections.
