OR: Turnout Likely to Surpass Nixon-Kennedy

By Theresa Vargas
Oregon voter turnout was at 72 percent and climbing, with a surge of last-minute ballots expected to set a new record, according to the Associated Press.

Secretary of State Bill Bradbury told the AP that he is sticking with his prediction that turnout will eclipse the record of 86.5 percent from 1960 and the Nixon-Kennedy presidential race.
