(THE COUNTY FINALLY CERTIFYS THE JUNE ELECTIONS)….WEDNESDAY WAS THE FINAL DAY TO CERTIFY THE JUNE SIXTH ELECTIONS. THE COUNTY HAD 28 DAYS TO APPROVE THE CERTIFICATION, AND WITH THE FOURTH OF JULY HOLIDAY, THE 28TH DAY WAS WEDNESDAY. THE COUNTY WILL NOT BE ASSESSED A PENALTY. THE BOARD HELD A SPECIAL MEETING WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, AND VOTED 4-0 TO CERTIFY THE BALLOTS. THE COUNTIES REGISTRAR OF VOTERS, DOLORES PROVENCIO, HELD OFF UNTIL THE LAST DAY TO ENSURE ALL WAS IN ORDER. ONCE CERTIFIED, THE BALLOTS ARE SUBMITTED TO THE STATE AS THE OFFICIAL COUNT. ERIC REYES WENT BEFORE THE BOARD AND SAID HE STILL WANTED WRITEN ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS HE HAD PREVIOUSLY SUBMITTED SURROUNDING THE JUNE SIXTH ELECTIONS AND THE COUNTING PROCESS, BUT HE DID NOT ASK THAT THE BOARD NOT CERTIFY THE BALLOTS. SUPERVISOR LARRY GROGAN IS OUT OF THE COUNTY AND DID NOT ATTEND THE SPECIAL MEETING.
