ND professor offers perspective on record-low voter turnout

This week, North Dakota saw its lowest voter turnout in a general election in 50 years, a sharp contrast to the national attention surrounding this year’s midterms. The North Dakota secretary of state reported just under 40% of eligible voters cast ballots in this year's election.

She stressed the low turnout is important when interpreting the state’s ballot measure results. "People normally turn out for elections over the candidates, not ballot measures, so there just wasn't a big draw," Buehlmann explained. Voters rejected both statewide constitutional measures . The first would have raised the threshold for passing future constitutional amendments. And Measure 2 sought to guarantee free breakfast and lunch to all K-12 students. It failed by fewer than 3,000 votes. Buehlmann noted the narrow defeat does not necessarily reflect broad opposition to the idea of universal school meals. Instead, she believes it raised concerns about putting a long-term funding commitment into the state constitution. She pointed out a proposal going through the state Legislature, rather than amending the constitution, could
