Polling-site ceiling collapse forces temporary relocation of USD 2.7 election voting

Crawford County Commission · August 4, 2025

Summary

Officials reported that the usual polling location for a USD 2.7 school primary became unusable after a ceiling collapse; election staff relocated voting to a nearby tornado shelter and posted signage to redirect voters ahead of the 7 p.m. close.

A commissioner reported a polling-place problem for the USD 2.7 member position 5 election when volunteers found the ceiling at the usual site had caved in. "We had a polling place issue yesterday... the ceiling inside had caved in," the commissioner said, explaining that the mayor offered the tornado shelter nearby as an alternative and staff set up voting there and posted signage at the original site.

Election officials said they had notified as many voters as possible and placed signs at the original polling location; the commissioner encouraged registered voters in that precinct to vote before polls close at 7 p.m. Staff said they would continue outreach to ensure voters were aware of the temporary relocation.
