Voter turnout in Allegheny County
Voter turnout was significantly up for an off-year election. In Allegheny County, almost 45% of voters cast a ballot. Turnout was around 33% in 2021 and 23% in 2017.
For Allegheny County Executive Sara Innamorato, the Democratic wins on the county council will help with her agenda.
"This slate that was elected is very serious about governing," Innamorato, a Democrat, said. "They are about helping their neighbors."
