Turnout in 2010 was 53%, but that's an apples-to-oranges comparison as there was a very hotly-contested race for the mayor's seat.
Better comparisons are 2004 and 2007, when we had an incumbent mayor whose victory was assured (just like 2013). In those elections, voter turnout was 18% and 33%, respectively.
