Minutes:

meeting. Mr. Powell moved to approve the minutes. Mr. Spears seconded. Approved without
dissent.
Business:
The Board reviewed the provisional poll -book, attached hereto. There were 33 total ballots. After
researching the voters Mrs. Jones recommended to the Board:
• Approve- 25 unreported moves or voted in the wrong precinct.
• Partial Count- 1 voted in the wrong precinct. As a result received the wrong ballot. Only
the Sales Tax race should be counted.
• Not approved- 1 voted `in person' at correct precinct after voting provisional in the
wrong precinct.
• Not approved- 6 not registered.
Mr. Powell moved to disapprove the 7 non -valid provisional votes. Mr. Spears Seconded.
Approved without dissent. Mr. Powell moved to approve the 26 valid provisional votes. Mr.
Spears seconded. Approved without dissent.
Ms. Jones started the provisional machine. The zero tapes were signed by the Board and the
ballots were run through the machine. The Board closed the machine, added the one partial count
to the tapes and signed them. The Canvass abstract was prepared.
While waiting on the Canvass abstract, Mrs. Jones relayed to the Board that the State mandated
random hand eye count of Boone Trail and Stewarts Creek matched the Election Day results
exactly. Voter History also matched the Election ballot count exactly as well.
Mrs. Jones submitted to the Board a written complaint from Wesley Stillwagon. Mr. Stillwagon
addressed the issue that he did not receive an election notice or sample ballot and was not
notified of the polling place change in Boone Trail. Mrs. Jones stated that his voter card with the
polling place change on it was mailed to him on 7-17-13 and was not returned to our office as
undeliverable. The Board directed Mrs. Jones to reply to him by letter of where to locate the
election notices and sample ballots for future elections.
The Board reviewed the Canvass abstract. Mr. Spears voted to approve the abstract. Mr. Powell
Seconded. Approved without dissent.
In other business the Board discussed the use of laptops for future elections. Walt Temple
discussed with the Board the benefits of buying versus leasing the laptops. The Board also had
suggestions for future poll worker trainings, specifically additional trainings for the precinct
judges.
The Board directed Mrs. Jones to invite former Board members, Walter Massey, Louise Taylor
and their families to the December board meeting.
With no other business to discuss Mr. Powell moved to Adjourn. Mr. Spears seconded. The
meeting was adjourned at 12:25 pm.
The next meeting of the Board is an absentee meeting on December 3, 2013 4:00 pm.
Approved by:
ames Currin, Chairman
