Board presents corrected election results after court-ordered second tally; polygraph idea discussed
Summary
President Smiley Burrows summarized corrections from a court-approved second election that adjusted tallies for some candidates after earlier fraudulent results; the board discussed—but did not move forward with—voluntary polygraph tests and said the community received the results they requested.
President Smiley Burrows said the board reviewed the results of a court‑approved second election intended to correct earlier fraudulent tallies, and that "the community was provided the results that they had been asking for." The board reported that some candidates' totals changed substantially while others changed only slightly.
Board members discussed the underlying fraud investigation and raised the possibility of individual board members taking voluntary polygraph tests to demonstrate noninvolvement, but "no motion was put forward," and the board did not adopt any formal requirement or follow-up action on polygraphs. The report did not specify next procedural steps for the fraud investigation beyond having provided the corrected vote totals to the community.
