I know the pre-election news stories, but seriously...less than 80K voted in CA-47

[PBS Poll-435]

Something seems off here...

1. That's lower turnout than usual, but not hugely.

Looks like people stayed home.

2. When 140K-190K was/is the typical turnout in other districts...

80K seems off.

3. That district has some odd demographics. Hispanic and

Vietnamese make up much of it. One or the other may just not have turned out. I don't know.

4. That's the city of Orange...

...not all of Orange County, right?

EDIT: Oh, of course. It's the congressional district. (facepalm)

5. It's all good

Huge Pre-Election fight when Rep. Sanchez said the "Asians" were after her.

But I still can't figure out why turnout was so unbelievably low.
