DISTINGUISHING BETWEEN THE WEIGHT OF POLITICAL ELECTORATES AND THE ELECTORAL WEIGHT OF PARLIAMENTARY GROUPS The Fondation pour l’innovation politique wished to reflect on the European elections in May 2019 by assessing the weight of electorates across the European constituency independently of the electoral weight represented by the parliamentary groups comprised post-election. [...] We then aggregated these data at the European level, thus obtaining: – the number of individuals registered on the electoral lists on the date of the elections, or the registered voters; – the number of votes, or the voters; – the number of valid votes in favour of each of the lists, or the votes cast; – the number of invalid votes, or the blank or invalid votes. [...] As the UK Electoral Commission does not provide any figures in terms of the number of votes for the European elections until August 2019, we calculated the number of votes received by each of the lists in the United Kingdom based on the percentages of the official results of the number of votes cast, the number of voters on the lists in the last general election in the United Kingdom, and the part. [...] COMPARING THE WEIGHT OF THE POLITICAL ELECTORATES WITH THE ELECTORAL WEIGHT OF THE PARLIAMENTARY GROUPS The comparison between the weight of the electorates and the electoral weight of the parliamentary groups is enlightening.
