Live news blog, June 18 | Athens News
The prefectures recording the lowest turnout were:
Florina 61%
Kefalonia 56.78%
Lakonia 55.89%
Evrytania 53.65%
Lesvos 54.43%

Why didn't people bother to vote. One of the explanations being put forward is that many people living in large cities but registered in ancestral villages didn't have the money to return home to vote. That would go in some way to explaining the low turnout in northerly Florina, which is on the border with Fyrom, and the islands of Kefalonia and Lesvos.
