Turnout Heaviest Since 1945 Election in Britain
Britons voted in the heaviest turnout since 1945 in a tight parliamentary contest between Prime Minister Alec Douglas-Home and Labour's Harold Wilson. Douglas-Home missed voting due to not registering while Wilson cast an absentee ballot amid rowdy campaign scenes and occasional rain across regions. News notes predicted turnout above 80 percent of about 36 million voters.
