Elections official seeks to terminate RBM contract after tally delays
Summary
Hope Cissna asked commissioners for permission to terminate the county's RBM contract used on election nights, citing repeated issues and delayed tallies; commissioners approved the motion and asked staff to return with a replacement vendor when selected.
Hope Cissna told the board she wants to terminate the county's contract with RBM, the vendor used on election nights, and provided a letter from Melissa outlining problems and recommendations for termination. Cissna said the RBM system has caused tally delays on multiple occasions and asked commissioners for permission to move forward with termination; she has not yet selected a replacement vendor.
Commissioner Matt Reedy moved to approve the termination; Commissioner Drew Storey seconded and the motion carried with three yes votes. Commissioners instructed staff to return with a recommended replacement vendor when one is selected.
"She provided Commissioners with a letter from Melissa with her recommendations as to why they are wanting to move forward with the termination," the record states.
