Counting the votes

Jasmine Dimas and Tammy Gonzales of the Red Willow County Clerk's Office tally early votes in Tuesday's election. County commissioner incumbents Earl McNutt and Cayla Richards lost to challengers Ted Gans and Charles Fritsche respectively, and Kevin Darling defeated Dalton Downing in the Republican race for county sheriff, to go on to face Libertarian candidate Jaeden Carter in the fall election. Hitchcock County Clerk Margaret Pollman said her office did not have as much success with the same kind of voting machine; the counting was delayed until a technician could get it working late in the evening.
