Another vote against pols' robo-calls
You offer many possibilities as to why there was such low voter participation in the primary election. Let me suggest another: potential voters felt harassed by all the robo-calls.
Those calls are complete turnoff. Maybe the politicians will come to realize that. I had previously contemplated starting to advocate that voters refuse to vote for those who make such calls. Now I think voters are already doing that.
