At what temperature do you keep your home thermostat during the winter?
Where do you set it during the winter, and how do your spouse or housemates feel about that setting? Has it ever caused disagreement... or worse, hypothermia?

65 at night, but only because the thermostat is downstairs where it is most drafty. Even at that temperature it is way too hot upstairs.

72F. Any lower than that and I am FREEZING. I don't care how much it costs.
With that said, I'm usually less cold in the winter when I manage to get in some exercise.

70 degrees during the day 68 at night for winter.
74 degrees day and 68 night in summer
I also have a couple of fireplaces that are gas and they heat up the big rooms really well for extra cold days. If my girls are here I guarantee I am going to find the house hotter then 70 in the winter and cooler than 74 in the summer. I love um both so they can get away with it. I swear each visit its like they give birth to more pillows and blankets no matter what season it is and I have enough unused stupid big as cups in unused cupboards that I might outfit a team soon.
