The DMV occupies voter-rich territory compared to much of the country.
The big picture: According to Census data from the midterm election, 76.7% of voting age District residents were registered to vote in 2022 — just behind Oregon's 77.2%.
- Maryland came in at 70%, and Virginia at 68.2%.
Yes, but: Only 58.6% of registered District voters ended up voting in the midterms.
- That dropped to 53.5% in Maryland and 48.8% in Virginia.
