Voting error chalked up to human error

One week out from the general election gives us a little perspective on results which turned out to be much different than reported on election night.

Unofficial results posted late Tuesday, early Wednesday indicated that six of the seven county commissioner seats were won by Democrats. Results were also posted for the Glen Lake Board of Education as well as Leland and Centerville townships.

However, the results were incomplete to the tune of more than 3,100 ballots, changing some of the county board race results. Preliminary results showed that Democrats Scott Perry, Lois Bahle and Kama Ross were victorious over their Republican opponents. Instead Republicans Mark Walter, Will Bunek and Alan Campbell appear to have prevailed.
