The delivery of ballots from Twin Bridges, Jefferson Island, Harrison and Ennis Town precincts was slowed by black ice and snow on local roads.
Counting of those ballots began around 11:20 p.m., while poll workers awaited more ballots from Big Sky. Norris Hill and the hill between Ennis and Virginia City is reportedly ice coated.
Tom “Tater” Broksle was bouncing along a potato field in the cab of his tractor in October when he announced the end of his candidacy.
The two election reform constitutional initiatives—CI-126 and CI-127—were soundly rejected by voters in Alder, but the vote for CI-128 in Alder was closer.
The county’s counter
Election officials ran tests on the DS450 ballot counting machine, which is not connected to the internet and is sealed during counting. Blue ballot boxes will start coming into election HQ in Virginia City after the polls close at 8 p.m., when counting begins.
In initial results, the top three vote getters for the Virginia City Government Study Commission are Abby Thomas, Darrell Schulte and Donald Mefford.
Thomas claimed 117 votes, Schulte 83 votes and Mefford 64 votes, narrowly edging out Mark Jacobs who brought in 61 votes.
