Democratic Voter Turnout In Erie County Trending High - Near Historic Level
snip
Erie County Democratic Board of Elections Commissioner Len Lenihan is projecting a near-historic turnout for Tuesday’s primary election.
“I think by the time the night is up we’re going to be between 35 and forty percent and I wouldn’t be surprised if we hit forty,” Lenihan said.
He said Democratic voter interest is highest in the City of Buffalo where the white vote is projecting to be about sixty percent. The black vote in the city is running at about 25 percent.
In the suburbs, the elections commissioner said turnout is running consistently around 35 percent. Lenihan believes multiple factors are contributing including the fact that both races are contested, candidates and national media actually came to Western New York, and the weather was beautiful on Tuesday.
