It's an interesting proxy for voter engagement.Apparently its not the win is the margin of victory. He scored something like 55% of the votes. Which, the article states, is a measure more than usual.
But sometimes strong party performance in the past depresses opposition turnout, as they feel the result is foreordained.
I'd be interested to see LPC forecasts of turnout vs actual. That is what might trigger fear.
