Afternoon Count Shows About 235 Votes in Brewster, Southeast

Around three dozen election workers were scattered across three locations in Brewster and Southeast Thursday in light of the primaries.

At each spot—the civic center at , the lobby at and the large meeting room at —they directed voters on how to cast ballots, and they even turned away a few. Those folks, less than a dozen in total, were Democrats, a party that did not appear on the Putnam ticket.

By mid-afternoon, about 235 people had shown up to the three locations. Elections workers said that seemed about right for a primary day, and they were not expecting any major rushes between then and the 9 p.m. closing time.
