Dustin Czarny, the county’s Democratic elections commissioner, said the change is unusual because party enrollment for Democrats typically declines in the years after a presidential election.
One factor fueling the trend is an increase in the number of Democratic voters in Syracuse’s suburbs. Republicans historically held a voter advantage outside of the city. But now overall voter enrollment in the county’s towns and villages is almost dead even, Czarny said.
