What Happens Now?

I contacted the Washington County Board of Elections and as of 1:00 p.m. Wednesday afternoon, they had received 51 absentee ballots from Dresden. To be counted, an absentee ballot has to be postmarked the day prior to the election.

The Board of Elections will start counting absentee ballots on Tuesday, November 10th. They’ll go through all the towns in alphabetical order. If they don’t reach Dresden on Tuesday, they will continue counting on Thursday, November 12th. (Wednesday, November 11th, is Veteran’s Day, so they’re closed that day.)

As soon as there are results, they’ll be posted here.
