County Commission Fourth District Seat B Appointment

Commissioner Mark Harmon nominated Elaine Davis. Commissioner Tony Norman nominated William Daniels. Commissioner Ivan Harmon nominated Walter Wojnar. Commissioner Craig Leuthold nominated Logan Brummitt. Commissioner Greg Lambert nominated Mike Alford. Commissioner Mike Hammond mentioned suport for Davis and Daniels. Commissioner R. Larry Smith spoke in favor of Daniels.

Each candidate spoke. The first vote was held but due to County Clerk, Martha Beeler's inability to record the vote accurately. The vote was taken a second time. The vote was Davis 2, Daniels 4, Wojnar 1, Brummitt 1 and Alford 3. With Wojnar and Brummitt both receiving 1 vote each, neither was taken off (per Commission rules) and another vote was held. This time it was Davis 2, Daniels 4, Wojnar 1, Brummitt 2 and Wojnar 1. So Wojnar was dropped and the next vote was held. This time it was Davis 2, Daniels 4, Brummitt 2 and Alford 3. Because Davis and Brummitt were tied a re-vote was held and no one dropped off. The vote was Davis 1, Daniels 5, Brummitt 2 and Alford 3. Commissioner Mark Harmon changed to Daniels and announced that he hoped the Commission would recognize his change from Davis to Daniels on the next fourth district seat. So Davis was dropped and the next vote was held. The vote totals were Daniels 6, Brummitt 2 and Alford 3. Daniels was selected.
