Election polls expected to be busy on Tuesday Melodie Phelps News Editor If pre-election interest is any indication, the polls around Wayne County should be busy next Tuesday. That¹s the prediction of County Court Clerk Carol Jones, who expects to see a tremendous turnout to vote for president, as well as for several local races on November 2. ³If the weather is pretty, I expect a heavy turnout,² said Jones. ³We have seen a big interest in this election...I think mostly people are interested in the presidential race, but I think the constitutional amendment also plays a part in it.² After all, this is the first election since the historical presidential race of 2000, which went to the wire on election night then took several weeks in court before George W. Bush was declared a winner. Jones noted that her office has received a lot of questions from people who wanted to make sure they can vote this year, and she feels a lot of that interest is because of 2000, when voters saw just how important each vote really is. ³Every vote counts,² said Jones. ³I think people saw how important that vote was in 2000.² Add a comment |
