Election board recategorizes Mastriano write-ins and affirms polling-place accessibility
Summary
At the election board meeting, officials approved a state-requested amendment to recategorize 773 Doug Mastriano write-in votes as their own category (with final totals unchanged) and approved the post-election survey confirming all county polling places are handicap accessible.
The Franklin County election board approved a state-requested amendment to the county’s ballot certification to recategorize Doug Mastriano write-in votes as a separate category. Election staff said the change does not alter final vote totals; the transcript records 773 write-in votes in that category.
Board members approved the amendment by motion and then approved a separate post-election survey reporting that all county polling places are handicap accessible, as required after each election. Election staff said the accessibility review is requested by the state and confirmed all locations were accessible.
Commissioners and election staff described the primary as running smoothly and thanked election workers.
