Talk:Conservative Party (UK) leadership election, 1990
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Election results
After the 1975 review the "15% margin in Round 1" refers to the total electorate and not just those voting for candidates. Consequently I think it's misleading to show figures that give Thatcher a 16% lead over Heseltine when this only refers to those actively voting for candidates and the distinction proved critical. Does anyone have the numbers of abstentions/spoils/not voting? Timrollpickering 23:12, 24 October 2005 (UTC)
