Event transcript
	Hey, good morning, everyone. I'd like to call this special meeting to order. It's Wednesday, March 27th, 2024, 10:01 AM and in 18	00:00:01
	we have 25 declines myself and then the globe.	00:00:08
	Boardroom We have Supervisor Humphrey.	00:00:16
	If you'd like to stand, and I'll leave this in the plague of allegiance.	00:00:20
	Final Legion to the flag.	00:00:26
	OK. Thank you.	00:00:41
	OK, let's get started with Agenda item 2A. It's information, discussion and action to canvas the election results contained in the	00:00:43
	official canvas of the Presidential Preference Election held on March 19th, 2024 in Hilo County, Arizona and declare the results	00:00:51
	official.	00:00:58
	Divine error.	00:01:05
	Good morning, Supervisor Christensen, Supervisor, Client, Supervisor Humphrey, before you, you have the canvas of election results	00:01:07
	for the Presidential Preference Election of March 19th.	00:01:11
	2024 Opening up the first page, you'll see our contents, basically our precinct listing.	00:01:16
	Voter turn out our total ballot summary, early ballot and our provisional Valerie Provisional Ballot, thus rejection summary	00:01:23
	reports.	00:01:26
	So in our precinct listing, we utilize the same precincts that we normally utilize for this for all of our elections. We had our	00:01:31
	six vote centers that we had located in Payson and the Global Miami area along with our 1111 outstanding locations throughout the	00:01:37
	county. Two of them because of this presidential preference election, the methodology where it's set up, we're allowed to certain	00:01:44
	precincts that don't make a certain voter registration threshold. We're allowed to send those out all by mail and for this	00:01:50
	election.	00:01:56
	Or whispering Pines Precinct and our Roosevelt Sierra onshore precincts were deemed tabs.	00:02:03
	A voter registration that was allowable so that we could send it out by mail. This allows us to save money by reducing the	00:02:10
	equipment and the time we have to spend producing kits for those location sites. So let's save this a little bit of time and a	00:02:15
	little bit of money in that regard.	00:02:20
	Next section is our voter turn out.	00:02:27
	And as I've kind of commented to a couple of you that have seen our post the election and when I spoke to a county manager, James	00:02:29
	Menlov, it was pretty anemic turnout that we had. We were not extremely busy on Election Day.	00:02:36
	Our final turn out was.	00:02:44
	46.79%.	00:02:47
	Voter turn out here in Gila County we had 23,920 voters that were eligible to participate in the Presidential preference election	00:02:49
	and that is primarily the Republican and the Democratic Party members throughout Gila County. Quick summary here. You can see that	00:02:57
	our all county ballots came out to 11,191 for a 46.79% turn out.	00:03:05
	Our polling place number of ballots cast at our polling places county wide was 876.	00:03:14
	So that was a very small turn out, but that has been the.	00:03:20
	That we've been seeing in Gila County since 2008. Early voting, voting by mail has taken an extreme.	00:03:24
	Umm command of the ways in which the voters vote in Yuma County. Our early ballots came out to about 10,309.	00:03:32
	Or where the bulk of our turn out was about 43% there we had six provisional ballots that were cast and were verified and so that	00:03:39
	shows how that ends Statewide, we finished #2.	00:03:45
	In the total voter turn out like I said 46.	00:03:52
	.79.	00:03:56
	We were once again eclipsed by Yavapai County, who came in with 54.82%. We keep chasing them, we can't catch them, but we keep	00:03:58
	chasing them. But we've been consistent, so we've finishing the top.	00:04:03
	1-2 or two or three positions in Gila County for like the last 11-12 years now. So voters in Gila County, they don't mind, they go	00:04:08
	out vote no matter what it is. So that's that's a good good thing for them.	00:04:14
	The next is our next section is our Total Ballot Summary and this just breaks it down once again.	00:04:20
	The number of registered voters that were allowed to participate in this election, 23,920. And then the breakdown and the	00:04:26
	Republican 15,949 were eligible. The Democratic Party 7971. And between the two they cast 11,191 ballots. And you can see further	00:04:33
	down the breakdown the Republicans 8088, Democrats 3103. Now you'll see that one number there. It says blank. What does that mean	00:04:41
	exactly? Those are just simply people.	00:04:48
	Voters from both parties they just designed.	00:04:56
	They were not going to participate in the election because some of the comments that we saw come back to us, they were not exactly	00:04:58
	pleased with the choices that they had. So in protest they simply did not cast a vote at all. And of course once again the voter	00:05:04
	turn out and once again voter turn out by the party.	00:05:10
	And as you can see here on the next page, page two of this report breaks down how many each candidate received.	00:05:17
	The only one that was officially withdrawn from the race was Asha Hutchinson, but yet he still garnered 10 votes in Gila County,	00:05:24
	even though it was posted on our web pages and on the polling locations on Election Day that he was an actual withdrawal in	00:05:30
	Canada, officially from the Secretary of State's office. But he still did honor some votes.	00:05:36
	And on the particular Republican Party, they had four over votes, 1300 votes, and referencing the Democratic Party, they also had	00:05:42
	five over votes and 32 under votes on their particular race.	00:05:48
	Or polling place ballot summary of the next section. As you can see, that is where we had our.	00:05:54
	Or a small number of turn out there at the point of locations and once again breakdown by how they receive their votes.	00:06:00
	The next section is the early ballot summary.	00:06:08
	OK, and once again how they came and voted by mail?	00:06:11
	The total that we received by mail were 10,331. We had 22 rejected for a verified for tabulation of 10,309 and the number rejected	00:06:17
	were 22 for various reasons.	00:06:22
	Two for empty affidavit envelopes and 15 were. These signatures did not match these the affidavits and the files that the voters	00:06:29
	have.	00:06:33
	Our provisional ballot summary, you had 31 that were received total.	00:06:39
	25 were rejected and we had six that were verified for tabulation.	00:06:43
	And the bulk of the ones this time we had 16 who were voted the wrong party. In other words, it was mostly.	00:06:47
	Independence that showed up.	00:06:54
	Now in some of our provisional detail report, we don't have a lot of information on that simply because that some of the locations	00:07:57
	are provisional ballots were cast.	00:08:01
	It would be able any of the individual knowing that they voted provisional in that particular precinct. It would be they would be	00:08:05
	able to determine how that person voted because there were very few provisional votes cast. So we've redacted that information in	00:08:11
	our report so that the secrecy of their ballot is maintained.	00:08:16
	OK. So that is pretty much it, if you have any questions on any of the information?	00:08:22
	Thank you, Eric Supervisor Humphrey.	00:08:30
	I have no question.	00:08:34
	Supervisor Klein, The only question I have, Eric, is these election results will be posted on our website to folks to see. Yes,	00:08:37
	they will. We'll have them posted up once we get those final signatures. And so for everything you need, we'll have them posted on	00:08:42
	our web. And we'll also be sending them off the Secretary of States office as soon as we get all the documentation that we need,	00:08:47
	which is basically the signature from the chair.	00:08:52
	OK. Thank you. Just have one thing to say on this.	00:08:58
	We were. I kind of had a little bit of a problem early on in this election where we lost one of our key personnel in my	00:09:03
	department. We're normally 4 strong, but we've lost a couple of people last year, went to a better position, which, no problem	00:09:09
	there. We had hired somebody in, but they're brand new, my elections administrator, one of my assistants.	00:09:15
	She was not able to continue on with the county for HIPAA reasons. I don't really can't say too much, but she was a significant	00:09:23
	part of our operation and it was a pretty difficult blow.	00:09:28
	To try and make up that ground, it's hard to train. Somebody usually takes a couple of election cycles to get an election	00:09:34
	administrator that knows what they're doing and can run with a ball on their own.	00:09:38
	We had somebody come in right in the middle of this election and I'm very, very grateful that she's still with us because.	00:09:44
	Allowed us to be successful in our efforts. So for those department Sherry, Paul, Carroll and Denise without them with the last	00:10:20
	minute kind of stepping up and helping us get that final clearance on that hurdle, we were able to provide the citizens view	00:10:26
	accounting successful in the election. So just want to make sure that those people got the proper.	00:10:32
	Combinations for the help that they've provided, and that's legitimate.	00:10:39
	Thank you. Thank you.	00:10:44
	And thank all those.	00:10:47
	Myself too. That job.	00:10:50
	The volunteers and people involved, it's just.	00:10:55
	Very necessary to have them, and I know that.	00:10:59
	You spend a lot of time training, a lot of time taking care to make sure.	00:11:03
	Are done well, and so I.	00:11:08
	I was impressed that no one the deceased voted.	00:11:11
	Because everyone thinks that happens a lot and so.	00:11:19
	I need one here that the signature does not match.	00:11:23
	Did they? Did they try and?	00:11:28
	Verify those signatures or yes.	00:11:32
	The Recorder's office had it, you know.	00:11:36
	Notified them and so they had that cure period.	00:11:38
	Have them working on the weekends on this particular election due to A.	00:11:42
	Issue with the recount and sort of movement of the primary election, as you all know, one of the things down there necessitated	00:11:47
	the the recorders offices to be open on the weekends to go ahead and facilitate those people to hear those ballots that they had	00:11:52
	issues with.	00:11:56
	So they had the opportunity, but.	00:12:02
	Very seldom at the end and with this particular election since it was very low turn out and it was not necessarily.	00:12:04
	I don't know. It just didn't seem like a lot of people were overly interested in it. So those individuals, that may have been a	00:12:10
	reason why they just didn't come in and cure those ballots like they probably should.	00:12:14
	There's no way of knowing.	00:12:19
	Thank you, Eric. And with that I will ask for a motion to declare the revoke official.	00:12:22
	It's all moved.	00:12:31
	And I will second that. OK, we have a motion in effect.	00:12:33
	Aye, aye.	00:12:37
	I.	00:12:40
	Thank you. Thank you, Eric. Thank you very much supervisor.	00:12:44
	Open Passes.	00:12:47
	So call to the public. We have no one here in Payson.	00:12:50
	Cathandra.	00:12:55
	No, we don't have any.	00:12:57
	Anyone in Globe?	00:13:00
	OK I.	00:13:04
	County manager report.	00:13:08
	Chairman, this is Michael O'Driscoll, Deputy County Manager. The county manager, James Menlov isn't here right now, so I will wait	00:13:13
	till the next meeting. Let him give the update.	00:13:18
	OK, Supervisor Humphrey.	00:13:25
	Yeah, I I just current events I I noticed that I got an e-mail from.	00:13:30
	Representative Dave Marshall on Fossil Creek.	00:13:37
	Today and it, you know, it goes on to say, well it's a two page letter and part of it is I encourage you to do all you can to	00:13:42
	assist HEAL accounting to solving the public safety crisis by first advocating that the Yavapai Apache Nation in Eagle County to	00:13:49
	begin negotiations to complete the project immediately. And it was my assumption that we're doing everything we can to solve that.	00:13:56
	And so I'm going to be getting with him to see where he got the impression that we are not.	00:14:04
	Doing all we can or that I'm not doing all that I can as a county supervisor and so that is the current event that I have for	00:14:12
	today.	00:14:17
	OK. Thank you, Supervisor Klein.	00:14:24
	I had that same e-mail but other than that that is all I guess I would have.	00:14:28
	OK, I think the origins of that e-mail, although not from myself, was from likely Gary Morris.	00:14:33
	Who has?	00:14:43
	F Double legislature legislators.	00:14:46
	To offer a letter of support, so I need to review that letter myself.	00:14:51
	As to why it's addressed necessarily to us.	00:14:57
	I believe it's just intended to be a letter of support.	00:15:01
	So that's all I have. And if there's nothing else, then I will adjourn the meeting. Thank you.	00:15:05
	Really like.	00:15:17

	The next section is the early ballot summary.	00:06:08

	minute kind of stepping up and helping us get that final clearance on that hurdle, we were able to provide the citizens view	00:10:26
	accounting successful in the election. So just want to make sure that those people got the proper.	00:10:32
	Combinations for the help that they've provided, and that's legitimate.	00:10:39
	Thank you. Thank you.	00:10:44
	And thank all those.	00:10:47
	Myself too. That job.	00:10:50
	The volunteers and people involved, it's just.	00:10:55
	Very necessary to have them, and I know that.	00:10:59
	You spend a lot of time training, a lot of time taking care to make sure.	00:11:03
	Are done well, and so I.	00:11:08
	I was impressed that no one the deceased voted.	00:11:11
	Because everyone thinks that happens a lot and so.	00:11:19
	I need one here that the signature does not match.	00:11:23
	Did they? Did they try and?	00:11:28
	Verify those signatures or yes.	00:11:32
	The Recorder's office had it, you know.	00:11:36
	Notified them and so they had that cure period.	00:11:38
	Have them working on the weekends on this particular election due to A.	00:11:42
	Issue with the recount and sort of movement of the primary election, as you all know, one of the things down there necessitated	00:11:47
	the the recorders offices to be open on the weekends to go ahead and facilitate those people to hear those ballots that they had	00:11:52
	issues with.	00:11:56
	So they had the opportunity, but.	00:12:02
	Very seldom at the end and with this particular election since it was very low turn out and it was not necessarily.	00:12:04
	I don't know. It just didn't seem like a lot of people were overly interested in it. So those individuals, that may have been a	00:12:10
	reason why they just didn't come in and cure those ballots like they probably should.	00:12:14
	There's no way of knowing.	00:12:19
	Thank you, Eric. And with that I will ask for a motion to declare the revoke official.	00:12:22
	It's all moved.	00:12:31
	And I will second that. OK, we have a motion in effect.	00:12:33
	Aye, aye.	00:12:37
	I.	00:12:40
	Thank you. Thank you, Eric. Thank you very much supervisor.	00:12:44
	Open Passes.	00:12:47
	So call to the public. We have no one here in Payson.	00:12:50
	Cathandra.	00:12:55
	No, we don't have any.	00:12:57
	Anyone in Globe?	00:13:00
	OK I.	00:13:04
	County manager report.	00:13:08
	Chairman, this is Michael O'Driscoll, Deputy County Manager. The county manager, James Menlov isn't here right now, so I will wait	00:13:13
	till the next meeting. Let him give the update.	00:13:18
	OK, Supervisor Humphrey.	00:13:25
	Yeah, I I just current events I I noticed that I got an e-mail from.	00:13:30
	Representative Dave Marshall on Fossil Creek.	00:13:37
	Today and it, you know, it goes on to say, well it's a two page letter and part of it is I encourage you to do all you can to	00:13:42
	assist HEAL accounting to solving the public safety crisis by first advocating that the Yavapai Apache Nation in Eagle County to	00:13:49
	begin negotiations to complete the project immediately. And it was my assumption that we're doing everything we can to solve that.	00:13:56
	And so I'm going to be getting with him to see where he got the impression that we are not.	00:14:04
	Doing all we can or that I'm not doing all that I can as a county supervisor and so that is the current event that I have for	00:14:12
	today.	00:14:17
	OK. Thank you, Supervisor Klein.	00:14:24
	I had that same e-mail but other than that that is all I guess I would have.	00:14:28
	OK, I think the origins of that e-mail, although not from myself, was from likely Gary Morris.	00:14:33
	Who has?	00:14:43
	F Double legislature legislators.	00:14:46
	To offer a letter of support, so I need to review that letter myself.	00:14:51
	As to why it's addressed necessarily to us.	00:14:57
	I believe it's just intended to be a letter of support.	00:15:01
	So that's all I have. And if there's nothing else, then I will adjourn the meeting. Thank you.	00:15:05
	Really like.	00:15:17
