5:05 PM: Nearly 48 percent hit the polls in Milwaukee
Turnout for the presidential primary in Milwaukee was 143,949, just shy of 48 percent of registered voters, but lower than was expected.
The city of Milwaukee Election Commission predicted last week that between 150,000 to 175,000 would show up to vote.
Yesterday's turnout, however, tops turnout in the 2004 presidential primary, when 137,362, or 40 percent of registered voters, headed to the polls.
