Voter Turnout Split in Iowa City Prompts Discussion
Elections show east west turnout gap in Lawrence with over 3000 more registered voters east of the river. Leaders seek a community discussion with city and county officials to uncover solid reasons for the low turnout and boost civic participation in all areas. Carrie Lindsey of the League of Women Voters calls turnout appalling, noting 13.9 percent citywide and a slower pace than 2007. The absence of primaries under a new law may have slowed the vote, and candidates weigh whether reverting to prior rules would help, while stressing trust in government and civic responsibility as key factors.
