Low Turnout?

I watched the 6:00 news tonight and they said it will be a low turnout and Blouin and Culver are counting on high turnout to win. Blouin might be helped by the higher turnout in the 1st District due to the primary for the US House seat. That means the low turnout might help Fallon out.

Polls are open until 9:00, so get out there if you haven't voted yet.

The Story County Auditor posted some turnout information.

Just out of curiosity, how does high or low turnout affect a particular candidate, percentage-wise?

High turnout would be from the union support for Blouin and Culver. Low turnout would mean just the core Democratic base would vote. Fallon did well with that base during the caucuses.
