It's an increase of 1/3 from the last municipal election even if it's still only a mere 20% of Decatur's 13,000 registered voters. The 80% who didn't vote sure missed out on a chance to make a difference with their vote given how close the School Board elections were. I’m kind of pleased with a turnout of 2548 voters.
