Washington County will continue in a legal appeal by the RNC against a ruling that will allow mail-in voters to correct minor errors on ballots in the upcoming general election. In a special session Thursday, the elections board voted along party lines to continue to contribute to the lawsuit as a rider, but will not kick in any additional money for the cause. To date, the county has paid an attorney over 75 thousand dollars to represent them in the suit that would eliminate ballot curing. Elections chair, Nick Sherman said they agreed to the move on August 22, but Lone Democrat Larry Maggi says he does not recall a meeting or voting on approval by the committee to remain involved and the timing doesn’t add up. WJPA reached out to Nick Sherman for comment on the August 22nd meeting but we have not heard back. Solicitor Gary Sweat was absent from Thursday’s special session.
