Voter Registration Swells In Johnson County

Voter Registration Swells In Johnson County


Iowa City Press-Citizen



Voter registration rolls in Johnson County are swelling at an unprecedented rate.  More than 10,000 since June.



An
average of more than 250 every day; more than 10 every hour the past
two weeks — of which, nearly three in four are between the ages of 18
and 24.




…If
the political parties and independent groups are correct, first-time
voters will inundate polling places nationwide on Election Day. And
they won't be just young people. Some will be new citizens. Some will
be people who previously had sat out on elections.




But
these first-time voters are tough to read, with more choosing “No
Party” than those aligning with Republicans or Democrats combined,
county auditor records show. Voter rolls are growing across Iowa, one
of the targeted “swing states” in this year's presidential race. The
count of Iowa's registered voters is up about 72,000 this year.
