Donley County Republican primary election results for the Precinct 1&2 Justice of the Peace and the Precinct 4 Commissioner races are undecided at this time.
Information provided to the Enterprise on election night and previously published on Facebook was incorrect, officials now say. Republican County Party Chair Bill Word says today the unofficial election results are as follows: For commissioner – Dalton 55, Sawyer 54. For JP 1&2 – Hatley 162, Lane 98, Taylor 89, and Savage 13. These numbers are not official until their are formally canvassed by party officials.
However, Word and County Clerk Vicky Tunnell both confirm that the election results are in doubt. Issues with how new precinct lines were entered into the voting system and voter registration issues that stemmed from those errors (i.e. voters not being able to vote in the proper precinct) call the election into question.
Party and county officials are working now to determine what will happen next and how to remedy the issues.
The Enterprise will post more information as it becomes available.
