Local Results: How the City of Falls Church Voted
See the results from the three precincts.
David Bjerke wanted to eclipse the number of voters that turned out in 2008 in the City of Falls Church.
That year, a little more than 82 percent cast ballots at the polls. When the polls closed Tuesday night, Bjerke, general registrar for the city, said a little more than 87 percent of the city’s registered voters had cast ballots. He said 77 percent of the voters cast their ballots on Tuesday at the city’s three precincts.
“That’s the number I want,” Bjerke said pointing to a plaque in the office commemorating the percentage of 2008 voters that made it to the polls.
