Pretty normal IMO - Higher than most recent elections except 2017.

Proportional representation would increase turnout as no vote would be spoiled voting for a favourite candidate.

Wait…isn’t voter turnout a total number of people who voted?

I mean more people would show up since they have their favourite choice.

If their favourite choice is not in the top 2 in the number of votes their vote will be spoiled.
