The buzz in the air was about how few voters showed up to the polls.

If the voter turnout is as low as is being predicted, “it’s not a good message for Democrats,” DeStefano said

This is just anecdotal, but in my town around 5pm, the Republican side in my polling place was busy... I had to wait in line a few minutes. Only one person was voting on the 'RAT side.

Outside our polling place, I only saw Republicans holding signs, no democRATs (this town is about 50/50 R/D, maybe slightly more Republican).

Also, earlier in the day I drove by a polling place in East Hartford - a bastion of democRATs. There was ONE guy standing outside with one Malloy/Wyman sign, and no one other than poll workers were there. It was weird...

Well when I went to vote yesterday, I was the ONLY one there. The poll workers must have been just happy to see ANYONE who showed up. Even there was someone who had a Malloy/Wyman, and a few other Dems signs nailed together unto one poll when I first walked in. When I came out, there was NO ONE holding up the sign. Talked to a lady who was driving in and she even QUESTIONED why even bother to have a primary to begin with. Could not blame her for saying it.
