Is that 60 percent way above average, Bones?
Average for mid-terms around the nation is around 40% or less. Some districts always do above 50%, though.
This year, voter turn-out is going to be huge. It really wouldn't surprise me if voter turnout around the nation is equal to most Presidential elections.
This is why I worked the numbers for Irey based on a 60% turn-out model.
If voter turnout in the 12th district happens to be higher than 70%, things get a bit iffy for her, but 70% turn-out in that district has never been heard of...
