  2. Fascinating #UKelection analysis from the #ElectoralReform Society:

    Even with so much tactical voting (where voters don't pick their true preference, and instead are guessing what other voters are going to do based on imperfect polling and trying to game the system in a dismal electoral Prisoner's Dilemma) we still see that most MPs were elected with a minority of the vote. Most voters voted for candidates that did not win.
