Turnout update

Posted in:

Illinois

The Southern Illinoisan reports heavy turnout in state Sen. Gary Forby’s hometown.

By 8:30 a.m. today, Benton 1 precinct had 157 voters. That number is far higher than the precinct has had during a full day of voting during some past elections. One of the city’s largest precincts, Benton 1 has 1,016 registered voters.

The link is screwed up so I can’t see the rest of the story.
