McLean County saw what appears to be a significant increase in turnout in Tuesday's election.
Turnout climbed to 28% of registered voters, according to preliminary data from the McLean County clerk's office and the Bloomington Election Commission. That 28% figure is a combination of voters in both election jurisdictions.
That's a notable increase from the average 20% turnout in prior mayoral election years. Of course, there's been a significant expansion of early voting and vote-by-mail in recent years.
