Record (low) voter turnout today?

The rain today could put the state's all-time record for lower voter turnout - 31 percent in 1999 - in jeopardy. Turnout in 2003, the last time the ballot was topped with state legislative races, was 34 percent. Only one of those state Senate races was close, however. The rest were decided by at least eight percentage points. This year, there could be four or five Senate races that go down to the wire, as well as several in the Assembly.
