May 4, 2010 SHOCKING FREDERICKSBURG ELECTION RESULTS! 13,000 REGISTERED ONLY 1,100 VOTE!!!!
This page will take you straight to the Virginia State Board of Elections page -
https://www.voterinfo.sbe.virginia.gov/election/DATA/2010/41F3A9F8-...
Read it for yourself.
A City populated with more than 24,000.
13,00 registered to vote.
Only 1,100 voted and School Board Members and City Council Members are elected with less than 100 votes!
Oh, did I mention that they ran unopposed?
One City Council Member elected by a 22 vote margin.
In one Ward only 98 people (out of 8,000 before redistricting) voted!
That election cost was $11,000.00.
Any suggestions?

This is discouraging. On the bright side - if we identify good candidates - we only have to get the number out to beat the other guy - which probably isn't a large number. Thanks for sharing Michael.
