\nSo how is the election not decided yet?\nProvisional ballots, which won’t be completely sorted out until Friday.\nThose are for people who may have been in the wrong district or there\nwas some other irregularity that must be deciphered.\nIt’s unlikely there are enough of those to swing this election,\nbut it’s possible.\nI congratulated both candidates.\n<\/p>\n

\nThere is no Democratic candidate, so less than 2,000 people are deciding\nwho will be the County Commissioner representing about 55,000 people.\n<\/p>\n

\nOne of those last two people, as County Commission Chair, will have to organize the Commission including whoever wins this race.\nI got them to grin by saying “Ashley Paulk.”\n<\/p>\n
