The precinct I worked had 26% turnout, the state averaged 12% since 2000 for primaries. If the trend follows, it will be lights out for any GOPer running.
The most common gripe I saw in what were probably conservative voters was not needing to see their ID. There were some that were really annoyed that I didn't check their proffered ID. As if I were the person who decided the law.
First three letters of your last name, first three of your first name, what's your address? You are John Alvin Doe, 1234 Elm St, NE? Please sign this and take that over to the table over there to get your ballot. No, I don't need your ID, you did that when you registered to vote. If someone came in and said they were you and you already voted, this system would tell me that. If they came in first, I'd know when you came in and I've never seen either case.
(and in one case, "This is the 5th Congressional district. We don't care if it was the 6th 40 years ago, it is the 5th today. Take your receipt, go get your ballot and please keep your voice down. You are holding up the show." Not really, it was "If you take this to that table, they will get you your ballot." Over and over...)
