I’m in a neighboring district and there’s no way any party is going to get 87% turnout in a special election.

**********************************

It’s not 87% turnout of their registered voters. It’s 87% of their 2016 election numbers.

It’s still really high to get 87% of 2016 numbers, but I guess it’s possible.

It does seem high. 2016 was a presidential election year. This was a special election, essentially an off-off year. To come close to the numbers of a presidential election year, and 87% is certainly close, makes me a little leery of the results, specially given the ‘Rat tendencies to manufacture votes and dig up deceased voters.
