An American Farm Bureau analyst says once again this election, farmers and ranchers made time to vote. Cody Lyon is Farm Bureau’s Advocacy and Political Affairs Director. He says, “We know that rural Americans vote in a high percentage anyway. When you look back at previous elections, rural Americans are voting in the upper seventy percentile. You know, it will be interesting to see the final numbers as they come in over the next week or so where the rural vote fit in.”
Lyon says farmers and ranchers view voting as a big part of their life.
