The Irwin County Board of Elections & Registrations voted unanimously May 24 to certify the results of the May 21, 2024 General Primary, Nonpartisan General and Special Election after staff read each contest and the total votes cast aloud as required.
Vice-Chair Charlene Hutchinson moved to certify the results “as read,” and Representative Patricia Thurman seconded the motion. The board recorded the certification and signed the results.
The requirement to read each contest and total votes was noted by staff as part of the certification process; the official results were attached to the meeting minutes. Earlier in the meeting the board also approved its meeting minutes on a unanimous vote after Hutchinson moved to accept them and Thurman seconded.
The certification concludes the formal tally and reporting for the county’s May 21 election; staff noted next steps include the planned post-election audit and any other required administrative filings. The board scheduled no additional votes on certification at the meeting.
