5:38 p.m.: Detroit voter turnout down
Midday figures for just the city of Detroit show that voter turnout was down Tuesday afternoon compared to Election Day 2012. Turnout was 27% as of 3 p.m., about 140,000 votes (include absentee ballots). That is lower than the 32% turnout at the same time four years ago, said Daniel Baxter, director of the Detroit Department of Elections.
3:35 p.m.: Big turnout in Sterling Heights could be good for Trump
At the Macedonian Cultural Center on Ryan Road ? the home of Sterling Heights Precinct 43 ? precinct head Celeste Grabowski said voters were lined up when it opened at 7 a.m. and more than 400 voters came through in the first two hours, more than she has seen in recent years. That could be good news for Trump, who held a big rally in Sterling Heights on Sunday and is counting on Macomb County voters to come out big for him. Romney easily won the precinct four years ago. ?This is the busiest I?ve ever seen it,? said Grabowski.
