Survey: Are You Voting Nov. 2? Do you plan to vote in the Nov. 2 election? Yes No Not sure

Secretary of State Sam Reed said he expects 84 percent of registered voters to cast ballots on Nov. 2, which would be the highest turnout in 60 years, when 85 percent of registered voters went to the polls.

"Nineteen forty-four is the record we've had in our state and, needless to say, we were right in the middle of World War II at the time. The intense feeling of patriotism and such … I'm sure drove people to the polls."

Reed said the presidential race is generating high interest, along with open seats in races for governor, attorney general and two seats for U.S. Congress.

The number of new registered voters was still being counted, but it broke a record by 8 p.m. Monday night, Reed said.

Some voters who registered could not yet find their names on rolls because their paperwork hasn't been processed, KIRO 7 Eyewitness News reported.
