A real vote winner


The ballot paper. Photograph: Guardian UnlimitedReaders of the Guardian's diary column might have been intrigued recently by the prospect of altering the course of Conservative party history. The Guardian's purchase of a Tory Leadership ballot and the competition to win said ballot is an unprecedented and last-minute opportunity for one reader to make their voice heard. Given the reported size of David Cameron's lead it might not be a decisive vote, but David Davis hasn't given up yet and you know what they say about the value of taking part. Well, here you can see the ballot paper itself (right).

Before any of you print off this image and attempt to vote with a copy, we should remind you that Guardian Unlimited takes its democratic responsibilities very seriously. We should also point out you might have a problem with the serial number. But enter the diary competition here, by explaining in 25 words why you're choosing DD or DC and the real ballot could take pride of place in your home.
