Election Results and Turnout Numbers

While elections in Dallas and Hiram had a few key differences—one city had a competitive mayoral race, the other a citywide referendum—there was at least one similarity between the municipalities. That similarity was voter turnout.

Both cities saw their voter turnouts hit near the 17-percent mark. Dallas—which had two competitive races and two incumbents facing no challenges to their re-election—had 815 of the city’s 4,816 registered voters taking the time to mark ballots. That total was good for a turnout of 16.92 percent.

Voter turnout was slightly higher in Hiram, which featured two competitive races for city council and a referendum on Sunday package sales, as well as an incumbent mayor facing no opposition. The city saw 278 of its 1,609 eligible voters take part in the election, or 17.28 percent of the registered populace.

Attached to this article is the election summary report released last night after vote tabulations for those wishing to learn more about the voting numbers.
