Chuck versus Chuck - Cedar Rapids City Council District 4 Runoff Absentee Ballots
As of 9:30am, 107 voters have requested absentee ballots for the District 4 runoff election and 92 have returned them. For the November 6th election, 128 voters requested absentee ballots and 118 voters returned the ballots. Theoretically, this means about the same number of voters should show up at the polls, but with the colder weather and icier streets ... and only one race on the ballot, the turnout will likely be lower.
On the other hand, both candidates appear to be running active campaigns this time around, so maybe, just maybe, they will increase the voter turnout versus November 6th. --Joel @ 10:15am
