I think it's a bit more complicated then that 😀

But yeah, there would have been more chance of Farage being an MP and more chance of Galloway still being in there.

But if there was more chance of people's votes counting there could be less disaffection leading to the otherwise bigger rise of UKIP.

As it is the Tories are pretty much farage's UKIP now anyway.
