MADISON COUNTY
County election staff canvassed the June 4 primary election results and read vote totals for federal, state and county contests.
Voter turnout for the primary was 1,642, or 13.19 percent. Two provisional ballots were processed: one was not counted because the voter had already voted absentee, and one provisional ballot was counted after it was determined the voter was in the wrong precinct.
Officials reported vote totals for multiple contests, including U.S. House District 3 (written totals recorded in the canvas), State Senate District 12 and State House District 23, with both major-party and minor-party results read into the record. The county also noted rules affecting Libertarian nominations: candidates who meet the party's threshold may be listed and have the option to withdraw from their prior party lists. The clerk provided procedural guidance on write-in vote intent and signature requirements as part of the canvass.
The board signed the necessary pages to complete the canvas and adjourned after routine business.
