    In a state that regularly sees 60+% and 70+% participation, yeah, 20% skipping those lines is a big chunk. I don’t think we have final turnout numbers yet.

      According to the headline it’s 20% of those who voted for the mayor, not 20% of the population. So fe a drop from 60% to 48% voter participation.

        It’s 20% of people who cast valid ballots skipping those lines.

        So they chose to vote for other things on the ballot, but skipped voting for mayor and city council, meaning they chose not to participate there.
