This past Tuesday, 10,714 of the 59,265 registered voters in Lowell voted in the city election. That’s a turnout percentage of 18%, but voter participation was not spread evenly across the city. Instead, just a few sections of the city yielded the bulk of all votes.

For electoral purposes, Lowell is divided into eleven wards. Each ward is divided into three precincts. Below is a list of all thirty-three precincts with the polling place name and address listed. Following that is the number of those who voted in the 2013 election, the number registered to vote in 2013, and the percentage turnout. The same information is then provided for this year’s election. Each entry finishes with the name of the council candidate and then the school committee candidate who finished first in the precinct in the 2015 election.
