FOR A FEW HOURS MORE
If you’re planning to vote after work today leave a little early. Marion County Clerk Beth White said the voting has been pretty heavy this morning and will likely be so this afternoon. White said the voting in some parts of the city has been heavier than it was in the 2004 general election. In 2004, the turnout was slightly more than 53 percent county wide.
She said voters may have had to wait, but no one has been turned away. She says some precincts are running low on paper ballots because of the high turnout and number of people requesting Democrat ballots. She says they will get those ballots to the precincts this afternoon during the lull times, however don’t expect any results anytime soon after the polls close at 6 p.m.
She says she doesn’t expect the votes to be completely tallied until late in the evening.
