PHOTOS: A Rainy Tuesday at the Polls
Wilson Terrace and Our Lady of Fatima Church in Ward 3 were the busiest polling sites by far on Tuesday, but even they weren't that busy.
[Editor's Note: The citywide voter turnout was incorrectly reported from Tuesday's primary due to a miscalculation by the City Clerk's office. That percentage has now been corrected.]
The City Clerk's office reported that just 6 percent of voters citywide turned out for the Municipal Light Commissioner's primary race on Tuesday and the Ward 3 City Council race fared marginally better, with 17 percent.
The rain throughout the day likely kept away some voters, although municipal primaries don't often attract large crowds as it is. You can find the results from Tuesday .
