It's just about 50%, which is kinda low. I think that's because people didn't really like the options available.

Wow, that is low. Here in Germany it's usually between 70-80%.
Does anyone have the number for this election?
It's still being tabulated, but you can get a glimpse here - http://www.electproject.org/2016g
