of

the

The

of
that
manual
recount
showed
a
change
of
only
one
vote
upon
completion
of
an
annual
count
of
those
three

Mr.

behalf
waive
manual

the

the
sixth
Ward.
With
the
recount
completed
staff
now
is
prepared
to

shows
that
candidate,
Abdi

Sami
received
a
total

three
thousand
six
hundred.

Twenty

votes,
which
exceeded
the
threshold
to
be
declared
the

the
third
sheet
in
your
packets,
includes
the
statistical
analysis
of
the
nine
precincts
contained
in
Ward

including

According
to
the
total
number
of
voters,
the
total
number
of
ballots
and
the
breakdown
between
early
and
Election
Day
votes.
It
shows
the
turnout
of
just
over
forty
seven
percent
for
the
full
Ward
on
page.
Four

your
packet
is
the
precinct
by
precinct
breakdown
at
1st,
2nd
and
3rd,
ranked
choices
for
each
candidate.
B
You'll
note
the
red
strike
throughs
that
are
shown
on
precincts
to
three
and
seven
on
this
front
page.
Since
those
precincts
were
subject
to
the
manual
recount
on
page
five
of
your
packet
you'll
see
the
detailed
results
of
the
recount
that
reflect
the
final
totals
for
precincts
two
three
and
seven.
The
order
that's
been
drafted
for
the
board
would
certify
as
official
the
results
from
the
original
canvas.
Four
precincts,
one
four,
five,
six,
eight
and
nine,
and
the
amended
results
for
precincts
two,
three
and

as
determined
by
the
manual
recount
collectively.
B
These
results
constitute
the
final

for
the
ward,
six
City
Council
race
for
the
2017
unit
school
election.
A

there
