Unfortunately, it looks like it


A 2007 study published in the Journal of Politics showed that increased precipitation on Election Day does, sometimes, affect voting trends.

According to the study, which examined voter turnout in relation to weather from 1948 to 2000, for every one inch increase in rain above the normal, the Republican presidential candidate received an extra 2.5 percent of the vote.
