Voter turnout at 26% by noon

Voter turnout reached 26% by noon, similar to the turnout by that point in the day in 2013. Whether the high turnout was a predictor of a high final turnout today or just a result of the beautiful weather prompting many to vote early before going out to enjoy their day off is hard to gauge.

Another difficulty in divining any meaning from the midday turnout number is found in the fact that today it was measured from 8,500 real ballot boxes, while in 2013 it was based on a survey.
