It is a sign of just how many people turned-out to vote in Madison yesterday.
Dane County’s clerk says some polling places in the city ran out of printed ballots. Clerk Scott McDonell says no one was turned away, voters used touch screen voting machines until new ballots could be printed. McDonell says he doesn’t have a voter turnout number yet, but Madison’s clerk says she prepared for 40 percent of voters to cast a ballot. That’s twice what the clerks normally see for an off-year, February primary.
