[Winona Online Democracy]

Hello Paul and Others,

In regards to heavy voter turnout, correct me if I'm wrong with this statement:

The Winona Daily News stated in an article today that the voter turnout was
as high as 85% in some precincts.

The article was only talking about people who had already preregistered.

Doesn't that mean that the number does NOT reflect all the people who have
not registered to vote?

Am I accurate?

If so, even though the number is nice, it does not represent the numbers of
all potential voters.

What do you think?

Dwayne
