Officials are reporting low voter turnout for Tuesday's general election. Grays Harbor County Elections says turnout was at just over 18-percent Tuesday. In Pacific County turnout looked better, with almost 21 percent voting in the off-year elections. Compare that to King County which was predicting a 40 percent voter turnout, and the latest numbers show just 28 percent of voters took part in this week’s election. That compared to 49 percent turnout in 2019 and 44 percent turnout in 2021.
