Pink Vote Pink vote refers to the voting rights of gays and lesbians. So, every vote that a gay or lesbian can cast is referred to as the pink vote. Most prevalent in Britain, the concept has already spread to US and Canada with many other countries like South Africa and Australia starting to acknowledge it. ==United Kingdom== According to the Office for National Statistics (ONS), 1.00% of the total population in UK is homosexual and so, 480,000 people consider themselves gay or lesbian. Political parties in Britain now aim at the pink vote bank and leave no stone unturned to persuade the homosexual community to vote in their favour. The significance of pink vote has increased considerably with the changing times. Charles Kennedy of The Liberal Democrats pitched for the "pink vote" and even promised a package of ways to boost homosexual rights. Even the PM and the Conservative leader took desperate measures to win over the UK's three million pink voters.
