Turnout numbers similar to years past — report
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleOfficials will apparently only release turnout numbers for noon and not 10 a.m. as in years past.
The 7.4 percent turnout number for 9 a.m. is similar to past elections, according to Army Radio, though its hard to do an exact comparison since figures are normally released for 10 a.m. and not 9.
The 2013 election saw the highest turnout in over a decade, with 11.4 percent by 10 a.m. and 26.7 percent by noon.
While a high turnout has historically helped left-leaning parties, it’s not clear whether the same will hold true this year, with both sides launching targeted get-out-the-vote drives.
