| Only two mayoral primaries since 1977 had lower turnouts - former Mayor Tom Bradley's 1989 re-election primary against Councilman Nate Holden with a 24 percent turnout, and former Mayor Richard Riordan's 1997 re-election primary against Tom Hayden with a 26 percent turnout. In Canada, where 80% plus turnouts were normal just a decade ago in federal elections, and 70% or more in provincial elections, voter participation is heading downward.
