DescriptionVirginia is seeing high voter turnout today and the total will likely be larger than 2008, State Board of Elections Secretary Don Palmer said late this afternoon.

“Turnout is robust,” Palmer told reporters at a 3:30 p.m. briefing in downtown Richmond. "We anticipate a very large turnout. We think it'll be higher than 2008.”

Palmer said state elections officials have been assisting some localities that are experiencing especially long lines, including Henrico, Prince William, Fairfax, Spotsylvania and Arlington counties, and the cities of Chesapeake and Virginia Beach.
