Cedar City Council accepts Nov. 4 election results in special meeting
Summary
At a special Cedar City Council meeting, officials read vote totals from the Nov. 4 general election, the council moved to accept the results as read and recorded a unanimous vote; turnout was reported as 39.87%.
On the morning of a special session, the Cedar City Council accepted the official vote totals from the Nov. 4 general election and then adjourned the meeting.
A meeting official read the results aloud as the single item of business. The official said: "The official results of the November fourth general election are as follows." The totals given in the record were: Steve Nelson, 4,300 votes; Phil Schmidt, 2,712; Ron Riddle, 2,734; Waldo de Galan, 3,843; Kathy A Long, 1,357 (read in the transcript as "13 57"); and R. Scott Phillips, 4,863. The official also reported a total voter turnout of 39.87 percent.
After the results were read, a council member moved "to accept those election results as read," and another member seconded the motion. The presiding official called for responses beginning with "Mister Phillips." The transcript records four verbal "Aye" responses and the presiding official declared, "It's unanimous," indicating the motion to accept the results passed.
Following the certification vote, the presiding official said, "So Congratulations," and a motion to adjourn was made and seconded. The transcript records the motion and second but does not show a detailed roll-call vote for the adjournment in the provided segments.
Because the meeting was convened only to certify the election, no further business was recorded in the provided transcript segments.
