OC Elections Commission canvasses and certifies Primary Election

On Thursday, the Oconee County Elections Commission canvassed and certified the results of Tuesday’s Primary Election. Oconee County Voter Registration and Elections Director Joy Scharich says a few ballots were added to the county totals. “The canvass hearing went well. We had one public attendee follow up on his provisional ballot. We ended up adding, I think, ten provisional ballots to the count and two fail safe. It is now official.” The additional counted ballots did not impact any of the political races in Oconee County.
