USPA Voter Turnout

This is the historical data (when available) of voter turnout for USPA elections. Voter data was taken from Parachutist articles on election results. Membership data was from a graph in Parachutist Feb. 1991.

Estimated percentage turnout in 1976 and 1996 are over 10%.

Except for 1980, over 10% of USPA members particpated in elections. A quote from the 1989 report states, "It should be emphasized that in elections of this type any participation in excess of 10% is considered a very positive response."
