Educate me here, brits from the #UK: how did #Reform have a victory when they only hold 1% of all seats in British parliament? RT: https://mostr.pub/objects/85530b36657d6b0d5d672daab2d686596723a172e441d9ab9f40f251f6c46bcd
Because they were expected to win almost a level of magnitude less! Plus, they were unexpectedly in second place in many other races!
This answer makes sense, thanks. I did see that they got 14% of the popular vote.
