    Default Turnout

    I have just calculated the turnout in Bristol to be 38%.

    Any more turnout figures?

    Further calculations reveal that just 20.1% of the electorate voted for one of the big three in this election.

    5.3% of registered voters supported the Governing party.

    so two thirds of the electorate couldn't be bothered or felt it made no difference to their lives - frightening really isn't it.

    I wonder how the voting figures for Britains got talent and BB compare
