Voter turnout was about 32%, due to a warm and sunny day, with temperatures reaching into the 60’s.
We reconfigured the layout at the polls for this election, trying to develop a smooth flow of voters. It seemed to work well and we will use it again for the Presidential Primary Election in early 2008.
Moderator, Barry Sargent opened the polls at 8:00AM with the Pledge of Allegiance to our flag and the swearing in of all the ballot clerks. We expected a low turnout as there were no big races on the ballot except for Kindergarten. There were 1247 votes cast.
Below are the statistics and results:
Election Day Registrations Registered Voters
Democrats 4 1039
Republicans 3 1539
Undeclared 31 3410
Totals 38 5988
