At a community meeting Saturday in Bozman, Council Member Corey Pack said that the Council was “disheartened” by the Election Board’s decision to close three Talbot County polling places. Pack said the Council had met in December with the Election Board Members and urged them to keep all polling places open. Following the announcement last week that the Elections Board will no longer offer voting in Tilghman, Bozman and Royal Oak, the Council instructed the county manager to draft a letter asking the Board to reconsider its decision and offering to make up the $5,200 shortfall the Board is attempting to save by closing the polling places. Pack urged people to write to the Elections Board and to attend the Board’s next meeting on February 8 at 9:30 am at 142 North Harrison Street.
