The Helios data, which is only viewable if you were eligible to vote, says 338 voters cast ballots out of 695 eligible individual voters (so about half of eligible voters voted), and those 338 cast a total of 1,061 votes (so each voter voted, on average, for about 3 candidates, even though only 2 Board seats were open for individual voter positions).<o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
