Just to finalize the election after post election by-mail ballots and provisional ballots were counted: Our official final turnout was 7634 ballots cast for a 67% turnout of “active” voters. The state has 63.6% of total registered voters.

I continue to be very appreciative of your security updates.

I've corrected the website turnout. Appologies! They use "total registered" voters, I use "active registered" because I think it's a more accurate number. That is why they say 63% and I say 66%.

It will get slow between 2 and 4pm. Then picks up for the after work crowd.

60 to 65% is what we expect for Gubernatorials. It was 70% in 2021, but that was an outlier year.

Lol. I know we’re not the smallest population. And it probably depends on definition, but while 2 square miles is tiny, I’m not sure we’re the smallest.

It’s also 6-7am. Very early. Virginia should change hours to match MD and DC. 7am-8pm

I use “active” voters rather than “total” registered because I think it’s a more accurate number.
2021 also ended at 38% turnout in early voting.
