Local primaries met with surge in absentee voting
This week on the Rochester Rundown, we hear from Olmsted County election officials about the results from Tuesday’s primary. The percentage of votes from mail-in absentee ballots shattered previous records and blew past the initial expectations of those in charge of counting the ballots. What will the county take away from this week’s experience, and put into practice for November? That story, plus who’s moving on to the general election and a look at the news of the week, including the newest destination added to Rochester’s airport.
