Voter Turnout in Florida GOP Primary Down 287K from 2008

The Pensito Review:

-287,674
Difference in number of voters who turned out for Florida’s Republican presidential primary in 2008 — 1,949,498 — and this year’s turn out of 1,661,824. If there was a nearly 300,000 dip in voter turnout in a Democratic primary, the corporate media would be tut-tutting about depressed voter enthusiasm, but since it is a Republican primary, Beltway pundits view the dip as a blip that is not worth mentioning.
