COMING DOWN TO THE WIRE! As candidates in key races make a final appeal to voters, election officials are concerned about low voter turnout ahead of such an important primary election. Where things stand hours before polls open, tonight at 11 from ABC7.
Early voting started nearly a month ago, but participation is down for this California primary election compared to the last election.
"The presidential years are where we do typically get the largest turnout, so it's below that but it is more than the turnout, at this point, that we had from the 2018 statewide direct primary election," said Bob Page from Orange County Registrar of Voters. Page says that so far, more than 286,000 O.C. residents have already voted -- the vast majority using mail-in ballots.
Los Angeles County's early voting topped 686,000 currently, but that's out of more than 5,600,000 registered voters -- that's slightly more than 12% turnout. "Of course, we'll see a spike tomorrow, and we'll see valid vote-by-mail ballots coming still in," said L.A. County Registrar-Recorder Dean Logan."But definitely looking like one of our lower voter turnout elections."There's been little evidence of it across the country, but no shortage of allegations.
