Commissioners appoint two members to county canvassing board for primary

Houston County Board of Commissioners · July 28, 2026

Summary

The board appointed Commissioner Cindy and Commissioner Kurt to the Houston County canvassing board for the Aug. 11 primary; staff outlined the canvassing board’s duties and scheduled the canvass for Aug. 13 at 2:00 p.m.

County staff explained the county canvassing board’s role — to review vote totals, certify results and declare winners — and requested two volunteer commissioners for the board that meets after the Aug. 11 primary. "Canvas means to review the vote totals of the election, certify the results, and declare the nominees or winners," Holly said while describing the board’s duties.

Commissioner Cindy volunteered and Commissioner Kurt also agreed to serve. The board made a motion to appoint Cindy and Kurt to the canvassing board for the Aug. 11 primary; the canvass meeting was scheduled for Aug. 13 at 2:00 p.m. in the commissioners’ room. Two commissioners recorded abstentions during the voice vote; staff said they will send formal letters and invitations with details to participants.
