Board approves master list of early-voting appointees; final scheduling to follow training
Summary
The board voted to approve a master list of early-voting appointees combining party-recommended and unaffiliated nominees; staff will finalize actual assignments after training and availability checks. A board member moved to approve the list and the motion carried by voice vote.
Staff presented a master list of early-voting nominees that combined Democratic, Republican and unaffiliated recommendations; staff described it as a master list from which final schedules will be set after training and availability checks. The list as read out included "129 democratic nominees, 99 republican, and a 101" (as recorded in the transcript). After discussion, a board member made a motion to approve the list and another member seconded; the board voted 'aye' and the motion was carried.
During the discussion staff explained that appointment to specific locations will follow training attendance and returned availability replies from nominees; the board also authorized the office to appoint on a two-year budget cycle. The board said it will receive a final schedule showing who will work at which locations once staff has confirmed availability and paired new workers with veterans.
