Cincinnati, OH report: Turnout up early, especially on GOP side
Hopefully this means that Indies are voting more on the GOP side:
Through the first three hours of voting today, about 42,000 people had cast ballots in Hamilton County. That's well ahead of the pace of the 2012 primary, which had a historically low turnout of about 20 percent and a total of about 110,000 ballots cast. Today's total so far tracks much closer to the 2008 primary, when turnout was 46 percent.
Elections officials are predicting turnout this year will be 40 percent to 45 percent.
Triantafilou said interest in the Republican primary appeared to be driving much of the turnout. He said about 27,000 of the 42,000 votes cast so far were on the Republican side.
