What percentage of eligible voters voted in the 2010 election?
According to the Washington Post, "Overall, turnout in the midterm elections was projected at 42 percent of registered voters, about 1.2 percentage points higher than in 2006." (It should be noted that even though there was a slightly larger turnout than in 2006, about 58% of voters stayed home.) Also, according to most polls, the makeup of the electorate this time was different: there was a large "enthusiasm gap," such that Republicans voted in larger percentages than Democrats did; also, younger voters decreased, as did minority voters; and older voters, as well as white voters, came out in larger numbers than in 2008. 82.5 million people voted, many of whom were spurred by anger over the lingering recession. But it is worth noting that this number was far fewer than the more than 131 million people who voted in the presidential election of 2008-- generally, presidential elections bring out a much greater number of voters than midterm elections do.
What percentage of black people are Democrats?
According to exit polls from presidential elections, in the five elections between 1992 and 2008, on average 88% of African-Americans voted for the democratic candidate, while slightly over 9% voted for the republican candidate. The rest voted for a third-party candidate. The 2008 election, which featured Barack Obama seeking to become the first African-American president, saw a significant increase in the percentage of African-Americans voting for the democratic candidate, with most exit polls putting the percentage somewhere between 95% and 98%.
What presidential election had the lowest voter turnout?
Across the democratic world, excluding countries with compulsory voting, voter turnout is at its highest at federal or national general elections. This is generally because these elections are heavily publicised in the press, dominate the public affairs agenda for the duration of their campaigns and are regarded as being of high importance to the electorate - as well as being directly relevant to their daily and/or political lives. In contrast, in most jurisdictions, turnout is comparatively low in local, regional, municipal or state elections, largely because they are not as well publicised and considered less important by most electors. In the United Kingdom for example, it is not uncommon for turnout at annual local elections to be half - or even less than half - the turnout of the average general election. It is worth noting that in nations with an elected executive (i.e., President), turnout in presidential elections is usually higher than those at legislative ones, especially if legislative elections take place on a separate date. For example, at the 2012 French presidential election, turnout at the second round was 80.5% - at the legislative elections just a month later, it was only 57.2%.
Who chooses the executive in a presidential system?
Electors elect the president after the election. The original founders of the constitution felt that the average person wasn't able to make an educated decision in elections so congress decided who was president.
Where is the Isle of Wight on the political spectrum?
The Isle of Wight is a Unitary Council or Authority. Until 1995, the Isle of Wight was part of the county of Hampshire but for over 150 years, had fought to break away and rule as its own county council. In 1995, Isle of Wight officially became a Unitary Council, and is completely self supporting in all services, except Police, as a county, and regional administration. The Isle's Police services, are still a joint service with Hampshire county. The Isle of Wight is represented in British Parliament's House of Commons as a single electorate constituency. It is also the largest electorate constituency in the country, with an electorate of over 108,000, which is greater by 50% than the average electorate in England (the average is about 70,000). While the Isle of Wight has had a history of maintaining a fiercely independent status, it has also been a key battle ground for national elections, due to being the largest electorate constituency in England.
