The Cheyenne County Elections Canvassing Board will meet today at 2:00 PM at the courthouse in Sidney. The purpose of the meeting will be to certify the results of the vote count from the Tuesday primary election and to also count some 243 late absentee ballots that were received Friday and Monday, and to verify 28 provisional ballots cast during the election day activities.
Theguardiannews will cover the canvassing board activities live and will make up to the minute reports on the outcome, particularly in the Sidney City Council race. Currently, first-time candidates Zane Hall and Tamara Nelsen are separated by a slim 16 votes and either could benefit from a swing in the voter sentiments as revealed by the board.
Both candidates feel that there is potential for excitement in the end results and are cautiously optimistic that the the few remaining votes may help secure their position or upset the apple cart of public opinion.
Be sure to check back frequently this afternoon in order to get the scoop... We will have it here first.
