One voter casts ballot in Fulton County precinct

ATLANTA - It is often said that one vote can make a difference. Nowhere is that more true than in Fulton County&#39;s precinct NCO2B, where just one voter cast a ballot in Tuesday&#39;s primary runoff. <br> <br> Robin Muretisch, who voted less than half-and-hour before the polls closed, said workers at the north Fulton precinct were staring at her and laughing. <br> <br> ``I&#39;ve never seen that,&#39;&#39; Muretisch said. <br> <br> John Sullivan, the county voter registration chief, said there has been just one voter in a precinct before, but it&#39;s rare. <br> <br> ``Runoffs are always a different animal than a primary. But this was low turnout,&#39;&#39; Sullivan said. <br> <br> Voter turnout in Georgia was estimated at 9.5 percent. The record low was in 1984, when 1 percent cast ballots in a U.S. Senate primary race between Mike Hicks and Kelly Brown. <br> <br> Sullivan found an instance of a sole voter at a precinct that year. He said he seems to recall one other time, but wasn&#39;t sure. <br> <br> Needless to say, Muretisch assured a Republican sweep in her precinct. <br> <br> With patriotic fervor swelling again for the Sept. 11 anniversary, the Roswell resident expected better. <br> <br> ``I would still do it again if I were the only one,&#39;&#39; Muretisch said. ``Hopefully, there will be more people in line with me next time.&#39;&#39;
