Cliff Hayes Predicts 86% Turnout

Just got word from Kootenai County clerk's office that Clerk Cliff Hayes is predicting a turnout of 86 percent, which would be incredible. As you know 8900 (or 12% of registered voters already have cast absentee ballots. So what is your prediction?

Question: Is the presidential race and Propositions 1-3 the only thing driving the high predicted turnout in Kootenai County?
