Voter Turnout in San Diego County

The voter turnout for this Presidential Primary Election 2020 in San Diego County reached almost 50% based on 907,602 ballots. This is 1% less turnout than in 2016, which had 51% turnout, and 11% less turnout than in 2008, which had 61% turnout (the highest turnout for a Presidential Primary of the last 20 years).

As a comparison, in General Midterm Election 2018, we had 66% turnout which was the highest turnout for a Midterm General Election of the past 18 years and 2% higher turnout than in 2010 (the next highest Midterm General Election of the past 18 years).
