I live in the Warwick and Leamington constituency and yesterday was Polling Day 2010. It is one of the marginals that turned from red to blue. Remarkably our voter turnout of 84.49% was the highest in the country. I wonder why.
The second highest was the abutting constituency of Kenilworth and Southam with 81.2%. That is a safe conservative seat with a 12,000 plus majority -- even more remarkable.
It turned out that these turnout figures, gleaned from The Guardian, were wrong. The correct figures were unremarkable.
