Voter turnout and county by county

Post by _MCB »

When should we expect to see stats on these aspects of the election?

Voter turnout apparently is down in every state from 2008 levels.

Interesting. I wonder how it breaks down between battleground and cut and dried states? And how third party candidates fared in those two categories?

I am sure that there were some for whom neither candidate was acceptable, and either did not vote, or voiced their protests by voting for third party candidates.

So, how long do we have to wait for county by county?

While 2012 was a dismal year for conservative hopes on a presidential level, in Oklahoma they had a overwhelming vote to ban affirmative action.

In unreported news, the citizens of Utah County voted to required everyone making one step forward, to take two steps backwards to compensate.

The citizens of Lander, Wyoming voted to relax the ban on firearms for cattle. Said Clyde Thurmond who led the Citizens for Responsibility, "No gothic hoodlums will be tipping my cattle now".

Every state has been certified at this point but I haven't seen a better county-by-county result yet. Might have to go to each states' Sec. of State page. Final results was Obama 65.6 mil to 60.8 mil and Obama 51-47%.
