If the SNP wins every seat in Scotland or almost every seat, why would they ever want another election?

Did Labour or the Tories lose their deposit in any places?

Has anybody tallied up second place finishes yet?

I'm particularly wondering how many seats UKIP came in second in but I wonder for all the parties.

I tried to do it myself but I lost count by the time I had finished doing the Cs alphabetically. Will try to convince a nerdier friend to help me. This is a two person job.

Something that needs to be asked is: Has FPTP ever had a more epic failure? 1983 is nothing in comparison to this.

What? This is how FPTP works in general.

Lots of news sources running articles about the runners up (Labour had the most second place finishes) but none of them actually give the damn numbers.
