Went down the rabbit hole of City of Livonia City Council election results from this past Nov 4.

Most notable things to me...because they were all "No Party" is the high, high absentee number (Livonia has become a retirement home) and extremely high vote totals (Livonia almost votes at 85% rate of total population and of the voting age population it has to be an extremely high number).
Numbers rounded to simplify math for my sluggard math skilz
Total pop: 95k
Total vote: 80k
Total absentee vote: 55k
Total day-of vote: 25k
Not relaying any of this as a revelation about trends or anything but that high participation number was really interesting. I'll take a look at another Detroit suburb or two and compare later today.
