1. Locally.. the Democrats did not do as big a turnout as the Republicans
But we did not have the split they were dealing with.. Tea Party is big in the 5th.
The Democrats were pretty jovial at the polls yesterday (I sort of know all the election officials) .. and the Republicans well.. they were a bit on the grim side.
2. Based on the big races Dems- @67,000. Repugs @225,000
There just wasn't much draw for Dems to vote. I hope this doesn't portend a low turnout in November. My guess is desire to remove Grassley will bring out the vote in November.
