Dan Of The County: If those numbers are right (639 in Zone 1 and 422 in Zone 3) the astounding number would be the turn out. I believe the number of registered voters for the whole district is about 37,000. With five trustee zones the average (if they are relatively equal) number of registered voters per trustee zone would be about 7,400. If so, that would mean the turn out for this particular trustee election would be less than 6%! I hope my math is wrong. The Governor signed the election consolidation bill yesterday. It will be interesting to see if one the main arguments for it comes to pass, that with more combined elections you will hopefully see turnouts go up.

Question: Do you believe election consolidation will improve voter turnout for trustee elections?
