Dems expect “record breaking turnout”

The Maine Democratic Party is predicting that more people than ever will attend their caucuses on Sunday, a belief based in part on the fact that they have already processed 4,100 absentee ballot requests.

Unlike the Republicans, Democrats will all meet in their own towns, rather than gather at regional events. The Democrats will meet in 372 “unique locations,” said Arden Manning, executive director of the party.

“This is an unprecedented level of local enthusiasm and is representative of the Democratic Party’s broad appeal,” he said in a statement.

The party will allow absentee ballots to be returned to them until 5 p.m. Wednesday. If you need one, go to mainedems.org.
