Think we're re-engaged.

74.24% turnout. Elsewhere? What percentage actually voted?

66% nationally apparently, which in the scheme of things isnt that bad.

74% in my constituency.

68% here but it's a ridiculously safe seat, the winner had over 3 times the vote of his closest rival. He's won it every year since the set was created in '97.

Seemed pointless voting tbh ( but I did, via proxy)

Liberal for 50years here. Beaten into third by SNP and conservatives.

Looks to be about 50% in Hyndburn. Constituency of about 80 thousand, almost 10k UKIP votes. Sigh.

64% where I live.

Glad I voted as UKIP came in 2nd place with over 20% of votes, which I find quite worrying. They beat Labour by a comfortable margin.

I was seeing some figures in the 80s for some constituencies

It's just like the 80s.
