Election voter turnout revealed

Less than a third of people who are registered to vote in Jersey turned out for last week's election.

27,691 people went to the polls this year, which is up on the 2022 figure of 25,264.

That represents a turnout of 32.4%, given there were 85,470 people in the island who could vote.

The turnout was 41.6% in 2022, but there were fewer registered voters four years ago.

That's because Automatic Voter Registration was introduced for this election, meaning everyone eligible to vote was automatically added to the electoral register.

A full breakdown of the results is here.
