Jim Jordan won ADAMS precinct with 86.5 percent of the vote in 2016

Vote 07

Jim Jordan won the ADAMS precinct with 86.5 percent of the vote in the 2016 election, a margin of 372 votes.

In 2016, 74.1 percent of all registered voters in the precinct, 510 total voters, voted in the race for the district's representative in the U.S. House. Jim Jordan received 86.5 percent of the total vote in the precinct. Recent registration data shows there has been little change with a total registered to vote of 687. If the parties received the same percentage of the vote in 2020, Jim Jordan would win by a margin of 372 votes.

"I expect voter turnout to be exceptional, perhaps the highest in over a century, since 1908," said Michael McDonald, who directs the U.S. Elections Project. If those estimates are correct and the 65.7 percent participation rate remains the same, the voter turnout in the country would jump from 133 million up to 145 million people, according to the Brookings Institute.
