Article on Voter Turnout
Good article on some of the highest and lowest voter turnout percentages over the years.
"For example, the highest Republican primary turnouts in recent decades were 52.1 percent in 1994, which featured the Janklow-Miller battle for the governor nomination, and 50.7 percent in 2002, which had the contest between Mark Barnett, Steve Kirby and Mike Rounds for the gubernatorial nomination.
The lowest turnout in a Republican primary in recent years was 21 percent in 2000. The smallest Democratic primary of late was 15.9 percent in 1998.
The highest Democratic primary participation in current times was 50.7 percent in 2008 during the Obama-Clinton presidential fight.
By contrast, seven of the past 11 general elections saw turnout above 70 percent, and the lowest was 58.8 percent. "
