Crawford County Board of Elections approves two polling-place moves and minutes

The Crawford County Board of Elections voted to approve the minutes from its Aug. 27 meeting and to adopt two polling-location changes during a brief session. The board approved the motions by voice vote and then adjourned.

Commissioner Sealy said the proposed change for Vernon Township 3 had been discussed at the previous meeting and that both the current and proposed locations were properly posted. He said, to his understanding, no public comment had been received on the proposed Vernon Township 3 move other than comments submitted before the proposal was circulated.

The board then approved a separate polling-location change for Linesville Borough, moving the polling place from the Linesville Borough building to the Active Aging Bayer Family Center. Commissioner Sealy said both the current and proposed Linesville locations had been posted and that no public comment had been received on that move.

Both location changes were moved and seconded and carried on voice votes; the board did not provide roll-call vote counts in the record. Earlier in the meeting the board moved and seconded approval of the Aug. 27 meeting minutes; that motion also carried by voice vote. The meeting concluded with a motion to adjourn that was approved.

The board did not specify effective dates for the changes in the transcript, nor did it record any specific objections or a numerical vote tally. Staff member Jesslyn was asked to confirm the status of public comment; no correction was recorded in the meeting record. The board did not identify alternate locations for Vernon Township 3 on the public record excerpted in the transcript.
