City Clerk Bergmann: Statement on Runoff Election. Discussion on Challengers and Watchers
at the Runoff Election. Acknowledgement ofthe planning and working done by Marti Taylor
and Betty Miller for all of their help through 11 years of elections. Thank you to Tracy Osborn,
Sheri Horton, Mike Echeita, Planning and Zoning Department and Nichole Baird Spencer and
thank you to election clerks and judges.
I have provided you a yellow sheet which sets out the Canvassing ofthe Votes for the Runoff
Elections, a copy of the Canvas of Votes from the November 6, 2007. General Election in case
you wanted to compare figures on absentee voting and attendance, and I also provided you a
copy of the Media Release that we did last night. The day after the Election, before I prepare the
canvas of the votes, I do an audit of the Tally Books for each Precinct and I found two clerical
errors in the Tally Books from Precinct #501. Displays the Tally Book on the overhead
projector. We used two sets of Tally Books as they only count votes to 1,480 in each of the Tally
Books so this is the second Tally Book. Discussion on the Tally Books. If you look at the end of
the column for 100 and there is one more vote in the 110 column, when the clerks were bringing
those totals over they brought over III instead of 101. On McDavid the same situation, her
count ended at 50 and they actually put 60 over at the total. Those are the corrections I have
made.
