Not good at all. Although understandable, given some of the recent events in the House.

Congress ignores the will of the people...now the voters are ignoring them.

Well the democrats did have some contested elections, but nothing big..

They definitely did show up in greater numbers in my district. End of day was little under 2 to 1 D turnout vs R.

However I also have to note that about 10% of the D voters wrote in uncommitted for their President selection rather than vote for Joe Biden in my district.

I will admit I expected more even turnout, but it was insanely light. As I posted earlier I think the lightest in person vote totals prior to today in my district was 140ish if memory serves during my time working the polls. We had a total of only 115 votes case today.

So Dems showed up more, but they did have some contested elections. Only 1 gop race even had 2 people running.. every other race was uncontested on the R side.. two races in dem side were contested and one had 5 candidates running.. so maybe that explains the turnout differences.

However fact 10% of Dem voters wrote in uncommitted in my district I think is worth more… there has bot been any concerted uncommitted effort that I know of in PA… yet 10% of the D voters In my district chose that over Biden.
