More than 40 percent of Gwinnett County voters turned out for Tuesday’s presidential preference primaries.
Early Wednesday, Gwinnett officials released “unofficial and incomplete” results from Tuesday’s balloting, which wasn’t a record-breaker.
The results show 41.86 percent of the county’s 370,750 registered voting, compared to 46 percent in 2008, the last time an incumbent president wasn’t running for re-election.
The Gwinnett results largely mirror the state’s with Donald Trump coming in first (32.5 percent) in the GOP primary followed by Marco Rubio (30.1 percent) and Ted Cruz (at 25.7 percent).
Among Democratic voters in the county, Hillary Clinton was No. 1. She received 66.24 percent of all the Democratic ballots cast, and Bernie Sanders came in second at 33.39 percent.
