Look at the very high proportion of non-voters

With Green growth being the polling story of the week I thought the time was right to look at where expressions of support for the party are coming from.

The chart above shows the breakdown from the last batch of Lord Ashcroft’s marginals polling where there’s a big enough sample to look at subsets.

For me the striking feature is the large number who did not vote for any of the main three parties at the last election.

I remain of the view that lack of a past voting history is not a good indicator that people will turnout at the General Election.
