I wondered if the presidential primary would have brought out a lot of new registrants in the Town of Dryden, but as it turns out, things here look fairly stable, following the same trend of a few additional Democrats, a few fewer Republicans.
| Party | Number (Aug 2007) | Number (Feb 2008) | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Blank (Independent) | 1684 | 1663 | -21 |
| Conservative | 63 | 63 | 0 |
| Democratic | 2947 | 2986 | +39 |
| Green | 74 | 72 | -2 |
| Independence | 289 | 299 | +10 |
| Liberal | 50 | 46 | -4 |
| Libertarian | 4 | 4 | 0 |
| Other | 4 | 5 | +1 |
| Republican | 2690 | 2674 | -16 |
| Right-to-Life | 16 | 16 | 0 |
| Working Families | 32 | 34 | +2 |
| Total | 7853 | 7862 | +9 |
I'll check again closer to November's election. (I'm also not sure when they purge the rolls of people who haven't voted in a long time, and what effect that might have.)

I have to wonder about the numbers. I swallowed hard and switch from Libertarian to Rep. to vote for Ron Paul in the primary.
