Page County supervisors complete statutory canvass; clerks read precinct totals and county aggregates
Summary
Board convened at 9:00 to complete the canvass required one week after the election, with precinct‑by‑precinct tallies read aloud and absentee/aggregate totals announced; the process confirmed vote totals for county and state races.
The Page County Board of Supervisors convened its statutory canvass of the recent election at 9:00 and proceeded to read precinct returns aloud while clerks and supervisors cross‑checked tallies. The canvass included Republican and Democratic party precinct returns, absentee ballots and final county aggregates.
The clerk and supervisors read totals for federal, state and county contests, including United States Senate, U.S. House District 3, governor and county offices (treasurer, recorder, county attorney and county board of supervisors seats). Board staff confirmed the tally books were distributed to supervisors and each supervisor read returns for assigned precincts while the clerk verified counts.
County totals announced during the meeting included 416 ballots cast overall, with 326 Republican ballots and 90 Democratic ballots (absentee and precinct totals combined). The clerk read aggregated vote totals race by race; for example, the county totals recorded approximately 277 votes for Ashley Henson in the statewide US Senate Republican tally and 269 votes for Zach Nunn in U.S. House District 3 (county aggregate figures were read aloud by the clerk).
The board completed the required canvas with no contested procedural action recorded during the meeting; the clerk and supervisors signed the tallies as required by statute.
