October Dresden Town Board Meeting Minutes
The minutes for the October 2019 meeting of the Dresden Town Board were recently approved and have been posted on the town’s website. There are many interesting items in this months minutes.
Eleven Years Old
Well, here it is – another November 9th. Today is the day I celebrate the “birthday” of the Huletts Current. It’s now been exactly eleven years since my first post in 2008. Note to all the well-wishers who send me emails today – it is not my birthday!
I did institute a new design this year which was needed for many reasons. While it is harder to link to other sites because they are now behind pay-walls, my basic premise is to find stories and ‘news’ that folks will find interesting and informative. I try to keep the site uncluttered and simple to understand.
The one comment I consistently get, is why isn’t there more news? Well I don’t make the stuff up, so I have to rely on all of you to pass things along. So I thank everyone who has passed along stories and pictures.
Now onto year twelve!
Dresden Election Results: Unofficial
Tuesday Machine Vote Totals (Unofficial)
Absentee Ballots still to be counted.
Below are the machine vote totals from Tuesday’s election. As of Wednesday morning, absentee ballots returned to the Board of Elections are not included in these totals. While the projected winners appear to have leads outside of the number of absentee ballots to be counted, the number of absentee ballots returned at this point is still being updated. Absentee ballots must be postmarked the day before the election. These will be counted next week and I will update the final vote count then.
