  • Highland Township: 14%
  • Kennett Square (3 precincts): 7%, 12%, 17%

  • Pennsbury (4 precincts): 14%, 15%, 17%, 44% (the Kendal effect)
  • Pocopson: 16%
  • West Marlborough: 22%
Down in Franklin Township, where there was a controversial open-space tax referendum on the ballot (which meant that voters not registered as Republicans or Democrats could come to the polls), turnout was 44%. The referendum was voted down.
For more interesting numbers, go to Chester County's website (http://www.chesco.org/) and look for "Election Results."
