The 2018 Norwood State Primary By The Numbers
Here are some numbers about Tuesday's vote in Norwood.

NORWOOD, MA — The 2018 Massachusetts Primary is in the books and while other parts of the state saw big upsets and races that are too close to call, it was a relatively quiet day in Norwood.
About 22 percent of registered voters in Norwood chose to cast their ballot for the primary. Here are some numbers about the vote in Norwood:
- 4,086: The total amount of Norwood residents who voted in Tuesday's election. It's an improvement over the 2016 primary which had minimal candidates and drew only 681 voters.
- 7: The number of contested races on both the Democratic and Republican ballots. Only both governor's races, the Democratic lieutenant governor's race, the Democratic congressional race, the Democratic secretary of state race, and the Republican attorney general's race had more than one candidate.
- 2,232: The number of votes Democratic Attorney General Maura Healey received in her uncontested primary. No other candidate in Norwood received more votes. Lieutenant Governor Karen Polito got the most on the Republican side, netting 1,458 votes in her uncontested race.
Voters will be asked to return to the polls for the general election on Nov. 6.
