Appling County accepts registrar resignation, appoints interim chief registrar and authorizes Dominion testing contract
Summary
At an April 8 called meeting the board accepted Chief Registrar Shonda Carter’s resignation, appointed Sandy Dominy as interim chief registrar, authorized up to $9,350 to contract Dominion for on-site Logic and Accuracy testing and election-day supervision, and authorized posting the registrar vacancy.
During a called meeting April 8, the Appling County Board of Commissioners accepted the resignation of Chief Registrar Shonda Carter and appointed Sandy Dominy as interim Chief Registrar.
The board also authorized Chairman Leslie Burch to contract with and pay Dominion for on-site Logic and Accuracy (L&A) testing and election-day supervision at a quoted cost of $9,350. Commissioners additionally authorized the county to post the Elections Supervisor/Chief Registrar vacancy until the position is filled. All actions were approved unanimously.
Why it matters: L&A testing and election-day supervision are standard parts of pre‑election and election‑day procedures; authorizing a contract ensures the county can meet state testing and certification requirements ahead of upcoming elections.
Next steps: The county will execute the Dominion contract, implement the interim registrar appointment administratively, and post the vacancy for recruitment.
