WASHINGTON, July 21 (UPI) -- A survey of voter rolls shows record-low voter turnout in 15 of the first 25 statewide primaries for this midterm election.
The non-profit, non-partisan Center for the Study of the American Electorate at American University's School of Public Affairs reported only 14.8 percent of eligible voters cast ballots in the first 25 state primaries, down from 18.3 percent in the 2010 midterm elections.
