Idaho primary turnout only 23%
Turnout in Idaho’s May 17 primary election was just 23 percent of registered voters statewide. That figure emerged today as the state Board of Canvassers met to officially certify the election results. “It could’ve been worse,” said Secretary of State Lawerence Denney, who chairs the board. “I think that’s driven by who’s on the ballot and what’s on the ballot. We had from 60 percent down to 16 percent in the different counties”/Betsy Russell, Eye on Boise. More here.
