But here's the rub:
The turnout in Madison was light as expected, at 14.58%. Out of 290,580 voters, 42,359 went to the polls in the election. There were 39,098 Republican votes and 3,261 Democrat votes cast.EYE know good and darn well there are more than 3,261 registered voters in District 6, it's the largest district in Madison County. To be fair there is a COVID19 crisis in Huntsville/Madison County and more voters could have voted absentee, curbside, or via mail if the Republicans hadn't intervened, but EYE have to ask, why are Democrats so darn apathetic?
As you can see, rain, snow, sleet, shine, or COVID19 Republicans get out and vote. What's up with Democrats, especially African American Democrats whose right to vote is steeped in blood, sweat, tears, and sacrifice?
This is why the District can't have nice things.
