Turnout, or voter turnout, refers to the percentage of eligible voters who actually vote in an election. For presidential elections, voter turnout has been about 50% in the United States in the past few decades.[1] For non-presidential federal elections, voter turnout has been between 35% and 40%. For local school board elections, voter turnout can be less than 20%.
