Charles City County Electoral Board completes canvass of three precincts

The Charles City County Electoral Board met at the Ruthville Complex on Aug. 5, 2026, to conduct its official canvass of election reports for the county's three precincts. Chairperson Glenda V. Greene called the meeting to order at 11:20 a.m., saying in the minutes, "The Charles City County Electoral Board Meeting was called to order by Glenda Greene ("Chairperson Greene") on Wednesday, August 5, 2026, at 11:20 AM for the purpose of canvassing." Chairperson Glenda V. Greene presided; Vice Chair Gerald B. Barnes and Secretary Sammie C. Cotman were present, along with Registrar Lisa Cosby and Voting Registration Specialist Deirdre Jackson-Blair.

Board members split participants into three review teams aligned with the county's precincts. The minutes record the assignments as: Precinct 101—Glenda Greene with Keene Frazier and Deirdre Jackson-Blair; Precinct 201—Sammie Cotman with Barbara Charity and Jane Barnes; and Precinct 301—Gerald Barnes with Sheila Crump and Yvonne Bradby. "Each team reviewed each item on the Canvass checklist for their assigned precinct and confirmed that all reported entries were accurate and matched across various reports," the minutes state. After teams completed the checklist review and confirmed matching entries across reports, Chairperson Greene adjourned the canvass at 12:21 p.m.; signature lines for Greene, Barnes and Cotman appear on the meeting minutes.

The meeting record does not list any formal motions, votes, or contested findings. The canvass was handled as an administrative verification: teams checked precinct-level reporting against canvass checklists and the board recorded the completion and adjournment in the minutes. No further action or follow-up tasks are specified in the minutes.
