Tuesday Machine Vote Totals (Unofficial)
Absentee Ballots still to be counted.
It’s always interesting to me that the larger local newspapers don’t report the actual vote totals in an uncontested local election. They usually just report the winner’s names. However, in a small town like Dresden, one of the most interesting aspects of a local election are the actual vote totals. You can tell the relative strength of the individual candidates by seeing how many of their neighbors did NOT vote for specific candidates.
At the end of the day it has no real significance but if you come from a small town you understand.
Below are the machine vote totals from Tuesday. The absentee ballots will be counted next week and I will update the vote count then.
