Posted at: Tuesday, March 2, 2004, 02:27 PM
The turnout was low at the Heritage Precinct in Woodstock, poll manager Kaye Thrasher said.
Only 91 had showed up as of 2 p.m..
“It’s very slow,” she said. We were told to expect a 30 percent turnout. A rush for us is three people.”
Thrasher said a few people are apprehensive about using the machines for the first time. “But we showed them what to do and they came out smiling, saying ‘That was so easy’.”
At Canton “C” polling place at Teasley Middle School poll manager Charles Cash, about 140 of the 2,553 registered voters had showed up as of 1 p.m.
“It’s been a slow steady pace,” Cash said. “Everything’s been trouble free.”
