NorCo's Elections Results Now Official

Northampton County's Elections Commission met yesterday at 3 pm to certify the county's primary election results. The meeting was conducted in the public eye, but there is no video. The conduct of elections is one of the county's most important core functions. The county has failed to record several meetings of the elections commission. Given the importance of elections and the need to be as open with the public as is possible, an elections commission meeting should  be recorded. If there is a conflict with another group over Council chambers, where meetings are recorded, the Elections Commission should have priority.

I could have attended yesterday's meeting and reported to you. I assumed incorrectly that this would get at least as much attention as the General Purpose Authority.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
