Fewer Andover Democrats Voted In 2024 Election

Andover voters favored the Democratic candidate in each of the past three presidential elections, but nearly 2,000 fewer Andover Democrats voted at all in the latest race between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris.

The turnout in Andover reflected a national trend, in which 7.7 percent fewer Democrats nationwide cast a ballot in 2024 than they did in 2020.

Deputy Town Manager and Town Clerk Austin Simko said voter turnout in Andover for national elections varies greatly depending on the given candidates’ charisma, the competitiveness of the race, and what issues are at stake.

He added that there is an “intimacy” to presidential elections in Andover, despite them being held on a large-scale national level.
