I would say 22.9% of the votes wasnt too bad. Its the system that makes it look bad.

- axod 16y agoRegardless, the winner however you cut it, is the Conservatives. IMHO they should be allowed to form a government. Also, lib dems lost 13 seats they formerly held. If Lib Dem support really was solid, you'd expect them to at least hold on to their seats. They didn't.
- ZeroGravitas 16y agoI can think of many ways to cut it that result in either the Conservates not being the winner, or the winner being unknown with the data we have. The obvious one given the recent excitement around the 3rd party is the question "How many people wanted to vote Lib-Dem but thought that would be a wasted vote or worse would only help a party they really didn't want to win (note this works whether the hated party is Labour or Conservative).
