Half of all Franklin County voters could cast their ballots before the first poll opens on Ohio's primary election day.....
"It's very possible that we will hit 100,000 absentee votes, a record for a primary," said Matthew Damschroder, director of the Franklin County Board of Elections....
......Franklin County has 780,000 registered voters, though most don't show up for primaries. But Damschroder figures that, given the high-profile local and presidential races, well more than the usual 200,000 might vote in the March 4 primary.....
It should be interesting.
