Local Election Results

Last week’s election results are by now widely known. The number of votes cast and turnout percentages for local races are presented here.

This year’s election turn out rate was 22% for Adams county and 27% for Washington county. In 2024 Adams County had a voter turnout rate of 80.6% and Washington County’s turnout rate was at 80.1%. Of course, this was a presidential election and those always seem to bring more voters out. These numbers are from voteidaho.gov.
