I’m stealing someone’s wi-fi now so I can report on what I’m hearing about turnout
In my division 21-24 in Mt. Airy, it has been slow and steady all day with no real rush in the morning. We have about 175 voters right now. That might get us to 45%. We have about 903 total registered voters and typically do 70-75% in primaries and 90% in presidential generals.
I just heard about a division in Germantown, Ward 12, that had about 50 voters an hour ago. I don’t know the division but most division in ward 12 have 300 voters or so, if I remember correctly. So they could get to 40-50%
A friend in Overbrook, ward 34, said that there were 15 voters at 7:30 which is low but not abysmal for that time of day.
I’m told by people running state wide judicial campaigns that if turnout is “not absysmal” in Phlly which I think means about 20%, our state wide candidates have a shot.
So far, it looks to me like we are doing better than not abysmal.
If you can’t add to this by commment, call me at 215 880-6142 and I’ll keep posting, at least until they add security to the wi-fi network I’m on
