NB: Please refer to the Explanatory Remarks at the beginning of this chapter

Le taux de participation se calcule en divisant le nombre de votants par le nombre d'électeurs inscrits.

* Pour 2004, ce sont les votants des 25 Etats membres qui ont été pris en compte. Lors des élections précédentes, les données "votants" n'étant pas disponibles pour le Royaume-Uni, le total des votants est calculé en additionnant le nombre de votants de tous les Etats membres, à l'exception du Royaume-Uni.

The turnout is calculated by dividing the number of voters by the number of registered voters.

* For the 2004 elections, only the ballots of 25 Member States are taken into account. For previous elections, the figure for "voters" was not available for the United Kingdom and so the number of voters in the EU is calculated by adding the number of voters from all the Member States with the exception of the United Kingdom.

NB 1: Note that Ireland is divided into four constituencies and that the percentages of votes per party in the table refer to national first preference votes only. Under the Irish preferential voting system (the Single Transferable Vote (STV) in multi- member constituencies) the number of seats won per party in each constituency depends partly on the first preference votes and partly on lower-order preferences. Candidates who receive a number of votes equal to or greater than the “quota” are elected and their surplus votes are transferred according to the next preference expressed by the voter. When no surplus votes remain to be distributed, the lowest candidate is eliminated and his/her votes are transferred according to the next preferences, and so on until all the seats are filled.

* Note that Ireland is divided into constituencies (4 for European elections) and that the percentages of votes per party in the table refer to national first preference votes only. Under the Irish preferential voting system (the Single Transferable Vote (STV) in multi-member constituencies) the number of seats won per party in each constituency depends partly on the first preference votes and partly on lower-order preferences. Candidates who receive a number of votes equal to or greater than the “quota” are elected and their surplus votes are transferred according to the next preference expressed by the voter. When no surplus votes remain to be distributed, the lowest candidate is eliminated and his/her votes are transferred according to the next preferences, and so on until all the seats are filled.
