re: #681 Feline Fearless Leader
Low turnout elections favors incumbents, since they already have the ground game and could bring in votes reliably.
Higher turnout elections means more uncertainty in the outcome. Especially in local elections.
Off-year elections, especially those not held in conjunction with major statewide elections, means that local elected leaders often win with a handful of voters paying attention at all.
Far too many people don’t understand that all elections matter - whether it’s a school board election or a national election for President.
