Alabama voter turnout for Tuesday’s general election was the lowest in the state in any presidential election year since 1988.

Voter turnout was 58.52 percent, according to Secretary of State Wes Allen’s office.

Unofficial results from all 67 counties Secretary of State website shows 2,263,627 votes cast out of 3,868,043 registered voters.

President-elect Donald Trump carried the state overwhelmingly, as it did in 2016 and 2020.

The last time voter turnout in an Alabama presidential election was below 60 percent was for the race between President George HW Bush and Michael Dukakis 36 years ago, when it was 56 percent. That’s according to the Secretary of State.

Alabama’s highest voter turnout since then was in 1992, when 76 percent of registered voters cast ballots. That year, Bill Clinton defeated Bush. Independent Ross Perot won more than 187,000 votes in Alabama that year, 11%.

Voter turnout has topped 70 percent in Alabama in three other presidential elections — 73.8 percent for Barack Obama vs. John McCain in 2008, 73.2% for Obama vs. Mitt Romney in 2012 and 72.5% for George W. Bush vs. John Kerry in 2004.

Although turnout was lower than in the last eight presidential races, the total number of votes cast was the second highest ever, behind the 2,329,114 cast in 2020.

The percentage of registered voters in Alabama has increased 75 percent since 1992, when it was about 2.2 million.
