Rejected petition e-petitions to have an option to vote against the proposition

More details

In order to identify the support FOR or AGAINST a petition, add the option to vote against the proposition.

If at any time within the permitted signing period an e-petition gains 100,000 more votes in favour than against then the proposition should be debated, but if there are 100,000 more votes against than in favour then the e-petition should be rejected and closed.

About petition data

The data shows the number of people who have signed the petition by country as well as in the constituency of each Member of Parliament. This data is available for all petitions on the site. It is not a list of people who have signed the petition. The only name that is shared on the site is that of the petition creator.
