RE: Followup - posting results at precincts ?

["Some Guy" <someguy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

No numbers have appeared that I have seen. Calls to the clerks' office and
one call to Ron Stewart have gone unreturned regarding this subject.

A person in the clerk's office (not a decision maker) was of the opinion
that BC didn't have to do this. Maybe Donetta waived more laws for Boulder
County. I'm calling her office now.

Some Guy who would like to know how he fared in his precinct

Group:

Who is following up on this issue of posting results are each precinct ?

Has the Boulder County media picked up this question ?

As I read the 'law' below, it seems pretty clear cut - you must post the
results from each precinct at each precinct.
