Bad Weather Could Depress Turnout

“Storms are expected to hit much of the Eastern United States on Tuesday, which could depress Election Day turnout in some places,” the New York Times reports.

“A strong cold front could cause rain and wind anywhere along the Eastern Seaboard, from the Florida Panhandle all the way up to Maine… There will most likely be severe thunderstorms from North Carolina up to South Jersey. And in the Northeast, especially New York and Pennsylvania, winds could reach 50 miles per hour.”

“The same broad storm system is expected to cause a mixture of rain and snow in the Great Lakes region and Northern Plains, including parts of Michigan, Minnesota and North Dakota.”
