I'm curious what the under-30s turnout is. I'm hoping this will inspire younger people & encourage them to engage more in politics.

- jamessimm 9y agoHearing figures around 72%.
- arethuza 9y agoMy 18 year old son was checking results at about 6 this morning - he voted for the first time for Labour and our constituency was a very narrow win for Labour over the SNP (about 250 votes). Pretty sure his reaction is "Wow this voting thing actually works" :-)
- thinkingemote 9y agoin my constituency in a university city and thus with many under thirties the total turnout was down seven percent. However Labour who the young tend to vote for got more votes.
- DanBC 9y ago72% of 18 to 25 year olds, which is much higher than normal.
