Ballot Counting Table Glasgow Town Hall

Long wooden tables stretch across a fluorescent-lit town hall meeting room in Glasgow, covered in neat stacks of folded ballot papers. Overhead lights cast a cool, even glow that reflects off the polished linoleum floor, highlighting the humid air settling after recent rain. Volunteers in casual coats sit along the tables, their hands moving methodically as they sort and tally votes. The room features high ceilings with exposed pipes and large windows showing a grey, wet street outside. A red ballot box sits at the head of the table, against the white paper piles. at the edge is a damp fingerprint left on the edge of a plastic clipboard.
