At 4 p.m., the Secretary of the State was reporting 18.7 percent voter turnout for municipal elections, though some communities had not yet reported in their numbers.
"It’s about on track,” Secretary of the State Denise Merrill said Tuesday afternoon. “There are certain towns where there might be a more hotly contested race whether a small town or big town. The cities tend to have their primary race tends to be the biggest election so their turnout tends to be a little lower. Right now in some of them are in single digits. The highest we get around this time of day is 30 percent."
By comparison, last year for congressional midterm elections the state’s voter turnout was 66 percent.
On an average presidential election year, Connecticut usually sees 75 to 80 percent turnout.
Some towns reported malfunctioning voting machines, but Merrill said they had not received any reports of major issues.
