Turnout may be favoring Lamont vs. Lieberman

From Hotline's blog:

Keeping with Kevin Rennie's reporting, a call around to a few more town halls in CT reveals a pattern: the more affluent towns are turning out in much higher numbers than blue-collar communities.

Two well-heeled towns, Chester, in the CT River Valley, and Old Saybrook, on the Long Island Sound, both report turnout of 46% -- as of 5 p.m.

Meanwhile, across the state and the class divide, registrars in the old industrial towns of Danbury and Waterbury say not a lot of folks are coming to the polls.

The Waterbury registrar could not offer total numbers, but said it was "definitely not heavy," but "a moderate" turnout. He doubted they would reach 40%. In Danbury, 2432 of around 8000 registered Dems had voted as of 5 -- about 30%.

Affluent = Lamont, blue collar = Lieberman. More from Markos on turnout and what it means.
