It says they are anticipating a huge turnout, much larger than recent primaries and perhaps close to the 2 million they got in 1972, when I would guess the population of Michigan was quite a bit higher than it is now.

Most places on Twitter are saying huge turnout...

Any Republican sites are saying LOW turnout. (perhaps to discourage Trump supporters)

My guess is very high turnout

I voted at 8 am number 87 -1 hr after polls opened. My precinct usually has 53 votes cast by 3pm, so it's a big turn out in our area. At lunch lines outside lots of young people. Feeling positive for BERNIE!
