RE: posting results

["janegreenfield" <jwg39@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,
I was also wondering about this.  As a precinct captain, I would like to
know how successful our efforts were in getting out the vote.  Also,
since I do know how many provisional ballots we had here, I'd like to
know how many got counted total.  This should be available somewhere by
Nov. 23rd when I think the results have to be certified to the S.O.S.'s
office.

Thanks for finding this information about posting results at respective
precincts.

In my memory results were always posted at each precinct for a period of
time after any election.
It was always interesting to go look at the votes in your own, or
neighboring precint.

We have lived in the vicinity of 6th and Arapahoe here in West Boulder
for over 30 years now, and results of the individual precints, were
always posted at the Senior Center, Highland School and Flatirons
Elementary School, the three neighborhood voting places.

I vote that this issue be brought up with the Boulder County folks,  or
whomever.

Are you listening Daily Camera and Times Call ??

We might as well keep the County Clerk in the headlines for a while
longer...

Bye,  Peter Richards
