Turnout
There were 2,309,063 people who turned out to vote in the 2026 General election. This gave an overall turnout, when looking at valid votes, of 53.2% for the regional vote and 53.1% for the constituency vote. While down from the previous election, it was around the average from turnout since 1999.
This tool allows you to explore the turnout by region and constituency for both the constituency and regional votes. For the turnout figure we have used valid votes, meaning it excludes rejected ballots.
