Comments on: less than half http://sticksoffire.com/2006/11/13/less-than-half/ A very loose interpretation of the news and happenings in and around Tampa Mon, 22 Mar 2010 12:56:26 -0400 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Smitty http://sticksoffire.com/2006/11/13/less-than-half/comment-page-1/#comment-52035 Smitty Tue, 14 Nov 2006 18:20:49 +0000 http://sticksoffire.com/2006/11/13/less-than-half/#comment-52035 How interesting that Manatee and Sarasote had turnout well above the average. They had that hot district 13 race, of course, and one would assume looking at the numbers that it was probably that very close and very nasty race that spiked the turnout. And yet we're told 18000 voters didn't bother to cast ballots in that race but did vote in lesser known races farther down the ballot. Hmm. What's happened recently in that district, anyone? I haven't seen anything about it on the news out here (cough choke). How interesting that Manatee and Sarasote had turnout well above the average.
