Thought the whole "voting is cool" fad was on the way out after the presidential circus left town? Not so, says at least one county, which is reporting that despite the fact that the big names have moved on to greener pastures, the interest in this year's election is still uncharacteristically high.
The primary elections may have been two weeks ago, but Porter County residents are still registering to vote en masse.
Instead of being able to take a breather after a hectic election, the Porter County voter registration office is scrambling to get work done -- starting with a stack of more than 1,000 voter registration applications waiting to be processed.
Kathy Kozuszek, the Democratic leader of the office, said the pile of forms is only from the last month and a half.
"I think we need another tray," Kozuszek joked, looking behind her at the stack. "I imagine this is how it's going to be all the way up to October for the general election."
What about you? Hearing anything in your neck of the woods regarding new voters?
