2021 elections: Voter turnout in Rockford, Winnebago County 11 percent

Voter turnout in Rockford was the lowest for any mayoral election in the city in decades.
About 11% of the city’s 89,320 registered voters cast ballots in Tuesday’s election, which featured incumbent Mayor Tom McNamara running unopposed.
“Because we had contested aldermanic races, I think that brought people out into those wards,” Rockford Board of Elections Executive Director Stacey Bixby said. “But since the mayor’s race was uncontested, some people probably felt that there was just no reason to go vote.”
In 2017, 25.6% of the city’s registered voters cast ballots when McNamara defeated independent candidate Rudy Valdez and Republican Brian Leggero. ....

Rockford elections: City Council races, road referendum on ballots

There is no primary in Winnebago County outside of Rockford.
Mayor Tom McNamara, who will sail unopposed to a second term, is urging everyone to vote so they, he hopes, support the road referendum.
McNamara said the infrastructure sales tax allowed the city to save money, do more work, reduce property tax rates, retire road debt and improve the condition of roads and bridges citywide while leveraging millions in state and federal transportation dollars for significant projects.
The most important item on the ballot is the renewal of the road referendum, McNamara said. This is critical for our city.
There have been four municipal primaries since 2001. Turnout for those primaries ranged from 3,530 voters, or 4% of registered voters, in 2009 to 7,092 voters or 8% in 2005. ....
