Election officials in Chicago say they expect voter turnout in the city to top 80 percent.

Chicago Election Board chairman Langdon Neal told reporters Tuesday evening that the estimate’s based on heavy voting at polling places before noon on Election Day.

Neal says voter turnout in a presidential election hasn’t gone above 80 percent in the city since 1972.

He says there have been relatively few complaints from voters. As of around 5 p.m., he says no polling places in Chicago reported that they needed to stay open late.

Several election judges have been dismissed, including one for abusive behavior and another for apparently being under the influence of alcohol.
