That's true for the western part of the union, but it's very different in the eastern part. In the Czech Republic, it's been 31%, 28% and 28% (since 2004), and our voters are participating the most compared to other eastern states.
- onestone 9y agoIt's also true for other countries in the eastern part of the union.
- fauigerzigerk 9y ago43% is the average across the EU. It's not surprising that it takes a while for new members to fully participate. You are mistaken about Czech turnout though. It's the second lowest of all members: http://www.europarl.europa.eu/elections2014-results/en/turnout.html http://www.europarl.europa.eu/elections2014-results/en/turno... [Edit] For comparison: Turnout in the 2014 US mid-term elections was 36%. In the most recent presidential elections it was 55%.
