Manhattanites far outpaced the other four boroughs on the first day of early voting, as New Yorkers headed out in low numbers to cast their ballot for the second round of primaries this year.
On Saturday, Aug. 13, 4,631 people from Manhattan did their civic duty, more than half of the total 9,087 votes, according to the city’s Board of Elections, even though the borough makes up less than one fifth of the city’s population.
