Low Voter Turnout in Lower Moreland

By early afternoon, there wasn't much action at the local polls.

The 2012 Primary Election is here, but it doesn't seem like many local residents have much interest. 

Just before noon, the polls were nearly empty with only a few people casting morning votes. Representatives at the sites weren't surprised by the turnout and said they expect around 10-percent of the township to vote.

A sample ballot is shown above with the other pictures attached to the article.
