2014 Election Turnout
Posted by SD48 DFL Communications Team in News, Voting & the Election
Secretary of State Mark Ritchie announced a preliminary and unofficial number for our Nov. 4 general election of just of 50% (an estimated 1,985,747 participating voters out of 3,945136 eligible voters). Those number should trend upward as outlying counties submit their final numbers.
How do that compare to 2010, the state-wide turnout then was 55.81%. And, in 2006, our turnout rate was 60.47%. So, the state is not trending in a positive direction.
Did you vote in this election? The information will be available from the Secretary of State’s office some time soon. When we have a chance, we’ll review the numbers and let you know how our district, and Democrats in the district, did.
