July 22, 2004





The Board of Elections and Voter Registration called for a special meeting to

review the provisional ballots that were received for the General Primary

Election that was held on July 20, 2004. Mr. Wright called the meeting to

order.



Mr. Glenn Wallace presented to the board members 3 provisional ballots that

were voted. Mr. Wallace recommended rejecting 2 of the ballots because the

voters were not found on the voters list and did not fill out an application to

get registered.



It was recommended that 1 provisional ballot be accepted because the voter was

a registered voter. Based upon Mr. Wallace?s recommendation, the board voted

to accept the one provisional ballot and reject the other two. The voters will

be notified of the board?s decision and will be sent a voter registration

application so that they can be registered for the November 2nd election.



The board discussed the number of machines that will be sent to each precinct

and the number of workers the precinct manager should employ for the upcoming

run-off election to be held August 10, 2004.



Nancy told the board that a state wide recount may be called for by the

Secretary of State?s Office.



Being no further business the meeting was adjourned.
