Was anyone else very pleased to see 85% turnout regardless of the outcome.
In the US we are used to turnout with a maximum of about 50% (It looks similar in
Scotland as well). That is always disappointing, but I guess people don't feel that their vote makes a difference (amongst other things). Apparently when there is a clear cut choice with far ranging and obvious consequences, people can be motivated to get out and vote. That is encouraging.
