Minnesota led the nation in voter turnout this year. Statistics released this week by the Committee for the Study of the American Electorate show almost 69 percent of elegible Minnesota voters went to the polls on election day. The next closest state was Maine, with 67 percent. Curtis Gans, the committee's director, says Minnesota has been first or second for a number of years.
