Votes canvassed in special session
By Melinda L. Lucas
A quorum of the seven-member Shackelford County Hospital District’s board of directors met in a special session on Wednesday evening, May 5 to canvass votes from the May 1 election within the allotted time period, but also acted on one other item on the agenda.
The vote tallies posted on Election Day were upheld by the board, retaining incumbents Mike Folsom, Jo Ann Estridge, and Leslie Belcher.
By law, the canvass had to be completed by May 12, which would have fallen prior to the next regular board meeting on May 17.
