FLASH: More Dems than Republicans voted in Cornwall on Feb. 5
There were 1063 people who voted in the Democratic presidential primary in Cornwall on Tuesday, and 990 who voted in the Republican primary. It was likely the first time that any election in Cornwall brought out more Democratic voters than Republican. (Cornwall has 3070 registered Republicans and 2340 registered Democrats.)
"It's a historic election," says Arthur Davidson, chair of the Cornwall Democratic Committee. "This has never happened before. An African-American running for the Democratic nomination for president..and a woman... If this doesn't get you excited about politics, nothing would."
For those of us looking at state races is November, this could be a very good sign of things to come... |
