it was 57% last time, I think it will be lower not higher. people were pretty motivated last election to turf the PC's, or at least send them a message.
I say 47% turnout.
for the average Martha and Henry, I sense apathy.
this election it seems a lot of people now dislike the both the UCP and NDP and feel their vote doesn't matter, or just assume the UCP will win.
either way, they won't bother to get out to vote.
for those interested, here's the link for voter turnout since 1975
