3rd Party Debate Location (10/23/12)

The 3rd Party Debates on 10/23/12 was at the Hilton Hotel, not at the University Club of Chicago. Below is a link, and I was at the event. The UCC was the original event location, but it was later changed and held at the Hilton Chicago located at 720 S. Michigan Ave, Chicago, IL. I have not made this change to the main article, but this change should be made.

Turnout

The infobox lists a 58.9% turnout (voting eligible), while the source referenced gives either 58.2% or 58.7%, apparently depending on what kind of votes are counted. Is this just wrong, or is there a reason for the numbers to be different? 62.44.228.229 (talk) 19:03, 9 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The source retrieval date was January and the source had been updated since March. I've updated with the most recent number, which is 58.2%. The two numbers are total ballots cast (58.7%) and total ballots cast for higher office (58.2%). The latter is the applicable number here since it applies specifically to the presidential election. --NINTENDUDE64 20:01, 12 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
