If the Weston CT 2020 Primary Elections results were to decide the 2020 Elections, Joe Biden would win by a landslide; yea Weston! But while that will take more work on our part, the numbers from last week’s primaries still tell a curious tale of appetite for the oncoming election season. Compared to 2016, and in the midst of a pandemic, just 175 fewer Weston Democrats came out to cast their vote on (or before) last Tuesday, but in a much more scorching testament, 706 fewer Weston Republicans did so. Put another way, 44% of Democrats registered in Weston, but only 15% of their Republicans counterparts showed up for the 2020 Primaries.
