Tom Casey in the Register-Star reports that Columbia County election officials have been tabulating absentee ballots, and have not released any unofficial results yet. Still, he goes ahead and reports what he is told by political operatives, "observers of the count." WGXC only prints election results that are public to all and come from election officials. Casey reports that canvassing all the absentee and other ballots continues through Thursday, and official results will be released after that. Casey reports that representatives from the two sides in the Hudson mayoral election met before a judge to work out how to count ballots at one table together with “representatives of all the official candidates.” Read the full story in the Register-Star.
