FPTP still showing it's shortcomings, but the 17% disparity between popular votes and seats is the lowest this century
2019: 55% popular = 72% of the seats.
2015: 40% pop = 62% seats.
2012: 44% pop = 70% seats
2008: 53% pop = 87% seats
2004: 47% pop = 75% seats
2001: 62% pop = 89% seats
Funny that AP gained over 7% popular vote from last time (from 2.3% to 10%), but lost their only seat.
UCP 55% isn't a huge increase compared to 52% PC/WRP last time (74% in 2012).
