The results of this year’s General Election in Highland County have been tallied, and fewer voters turned out this year than the General Election in 2017, the last similar off-year election.
“Overall it was 18.9 percent turnout, and in 2017 it was 26.7 percent, so it was a little bit lower but overall pretty good,” said Highland County General Elections Administrator David Tolliver. “It went real smooth, and everything was in and counted by nine thirty.”
Tolliver attributed the drop in voter turnout to COVID-19.
There are 26,994 registered voters in Highland County.
The official count to certify the election will be Nov. 18, and most officials will take office Jan. 1.
