A more detailed look at Marshall County’s preliminary election results. These are what I consider to be the highlights. If there is a race I didn’t mention, feel free to comment and message me to ask. (I don’t have a precinct break down at this time.)
@FolkReporters #folkreporter Turnout was abysmal.
Only 31.82% of voters showed up.
50.28% of Republicans (4,153)
35.64% of Democrats (2,205)

Some thoughts on the agenda (or lack thereof):
The agenda available to the public in this meeting did not reflect all that would be voted on, I’m not sure if the version posted on the door did or not. No agenda was available to the public online prior to the meeting. 1/ This is not the first agenda to be posted online late (or not at all). Rule 3.3 of the Commission Rules require that the agenda is posted online in advance of the meeting (2 business days). So far this year, there have been 25 commission meetings. 2/

I was at today’s regular session of the Marshall County Commission. It started at 9, here’s what happened. #folkreporter @FolkReporters 👇 1/ Image The agenda was not posted online at the time of the meeting. The agenda was posted later in the day, around 2:53 p.m. There was a printed copy available at the meeting. The two agendas are not the same; there were items not on the printed version that were voted on. 2/
