The polls are closed, some campaigns are over, and I'm not going to mention any of them.
What I am wondering about is why didn't you vote?! Final voter turnout numbers are hard to come by this morning, but reports from last night put it around a third of what it was for last election's primaries. Even with early voting? Even the competitive races didn't have the turnout we saw two years ago — my intrepid boss even made a video about how nobody was around. This was not because the fancy voting machines are super efficient, it was because YOU DIDN'T VOTE!
Why? I'm intrigued. Were there problems at the polls? Were you too busy? Do you just not care about the primaries? It's ok — no one's judging here, I'm just curious.
