In Richmond, a turnout like no other

At the single polling place for Richmond, the Richmond-Carolina Fire District Station House on Route 112, a polling official said the town had "never" had a turnout for a primary like it's having today.

By 11 a.m., 178 votes had been cast.

Of the votes that had been cast so far, Town Clerk Mary Morgan estimated that 75 percent had been disafilliated. Asked why, she said she believed it was due to a couple of the candidates that happen to be in the race today.

She didn't name names.
