Clerk-Treasurer Sarah Stoltzfus told the DeWitt City Council on Nov. 12 that the Nov. general election saw strong participation. She reported early voting had a “phenomenal” turnout across the county’s two sites, with nearly 9,500 voters combined, and absentee ballots produced a 97% return rate. Overall voter turnout was reported at 80.2%.
Stoltzfus praised the Absent Voter Counting Board and the election inspectors for their work during the cycle and told the council the 2024 election process was successful.
