The situation could be fairly simple to correct: have an updated voters list.


This letter writer to the Record single-handedly boosted the voter turnout in Cambridge to 100% by taking into account the fact that her house and her neighbour's house reportedly still had 5 adult children living in the houses though they hadn't lived there in years.  While both couples voted (4 people total), the 5 who no longer lived there brought the turnout number down significantly.
