      @nickmanes1 See this map? http://www.mlive.com/news/grand-rapids/index.ssf/2015/08/interactive_election_map.html … Note the different turnout in various precincts. Our two not even highest.

      @nickmanes1 And turnout in those precincts actually not THAT HORRIBLE. (Which is why total voters higher than in 2011 Mayoral)

      @emptywheel I’m actually most surprised about some of the turnout on the far North End of the city. Like Knapp/Fuller area.

      @nickmanes1 Lots of potential explanations for that. Some not all that nice, some more so.

      @emptywheel agree. But tbh it mostly just feels like a no-man’s-land for both (although I’m not sure if that’s 1st or 2nd ward?)

      @nickmanes1 Anyway, what feels like no-man's-land to you is actually higher-turnout-land then in your typical haunts.

      @emptywheel FWIW, I’m probably ditching the hood and going to the 3rd ward in the next couple months.

      @nickmanes1 Or were you meaning the "I can never give up my almost-East habit" part of the Third?

          @emptywheel haha, no. Alger Heights area. Great house, whole backyard, for less than I pay now.

          @nickmanes1 I would not enjoy being a renter now (which is why, against all our better judgment, we bought in 2012).

          @emptywheel yeah it’s a very tough time to be a renter right now.
