Turnout highest in Pepper strongholds


This map shows turnout percentages by precincts. The darkest green had the highest turnout.

Regular blog reader Fred Tivin of Finneytown writes:

I really enjoyed your election night blog. Lotsa' good stuff.

I have a suggestion. In addition to publishing votes cast by ward, how about posting percent turnout by ward. I bet this would be an eye-opener. The 20 percent overall turnout masks what must be some of the lowest ward turnouts in the history of the city.
Here are the ward-by-ward turnout percentages:

Could it be a correlation between those who have wealth and are able to see the advantages that it provides and the greater turnout percentage?
While those without wealth are not clear as to what advantages wealth provides. It would follow that the poorer would not be able to recognize the advantages that control of government has for the wealthy.

Perhaps that is the reason wealthy contribute more to republicans.

Perhaps we need more statistics to test my theory.
