Up that to about 70%.
It wasn't clear how many people voted.
Officials said close to 70 percent of 1.1 million registered voters cast ballots. But because elections officials opened up the polls to all Palestinians above age 18 in the middle of the day on Sunday, about 660,000 others could have voted; officials hadn't yet said how many did.
I can remember off-year elections in the US with a lot lower turnout than that. Good for them.
