Talk:2025 Guyanese general election

APNU and AFC

Aren't these contesting as two separate parties in the elections? 2600:4040:9DC2:6E00:6C0F:92:2785:3BC (talk) 01:45, 31 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Something's off here. The FGM has two columns labelled "votes" (presumably the latter should be "seats"), while the parties listed after it have, respectively, columns labelled "%" and "votes" and "%" and "seats". And the "35" listed under "%" for the AFC sounds more like the number of votes than the vote percentage. Tag Azzamrahman who originally inserted the table.

I've fixed the headings, but what is that seats column? How does a party get 0.06 of a seat?? Number 57 23:31, 7 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the column fixes. I read "0.06" as a notional placeholder until the final seat numbers were published (ie, in a two-seat constituency, 3% of the vote would get you 0.06 of a seat). It'd be trivial to update those seat columns with what are presumably the actual final numbers per File:2025 Guyanese general election.svg – and with the totals listed as 'regional seats' at the bottom of the table – but I'm reluctant to spend my time doing that without a rock-solid source (either press or Elections Commission) listing each party's seats per district. It'd be an extrapolation, WP:OR, and would only get {{CN}}'d. The table, as it stands, is completely unsourced, of course... Moscow Mule (talk) 13:56, 8 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The sources for each region are in the main results table. Cheers, Number 57 21:04, 8 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Filled and copied. The seats are still an extrapolation though, albeit a correct one. Moscow Mule (talk) 00:23, 9 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Registered voters & turnout

With reference to the to-and-froing in the infobox: The article currently gives a total of 718,715 registered voters, but I'm seeing (good) sources for 757,690: Carter Center and their preliminary statement, newsroom.gy, Commonwealth, EU-EOM. Assuming that's correct: 442,550 (votes cast) / 757,690 (roll) *100 = a turnout of 58.40%. That's supported by (e.g.) this Guyana Standard story.

I found (and used) the Carter Center source independently before seeing the talk page. The 718,715 was based on an outdated source for last year. Number 57 22:59, 10 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
