Young Voter Turnout is High

After Secretary of State Mac Warner led a push to register young voters, election officials are monitoring the turnout. In the first week of early voting, the number of young voters (ages 18-25) casting their ballot in Cabell County has more than doubled since 2016 and that was a presidential election which usually attracts more votes than midterm elections. Marshall has had a polling location on campus and convenience may be playing a part in the turnout.
