Sherman County commissioners certify canvass after reading election tallies
Sherman County commissioners met to canvass recent election results and voted to certify the printed canvas after county staff read reported tallies. Speaker 1 (who identified himself in the meeting as Steve Everett) read vote information including the line '1,213 votes casted' and named several top vote-getters, then the board approved the canvass.

The question of certification came after the staff reading. Speaker 2 moved to make the printed results official "after the canvas," Speaker 3 seconded, and Speaker 1 called the voice vote. All present answered 'Aye' and Speaker 1 stated "Motion is passed." No roll-call tally with individual names was recorded in the transcript beyond the vocal assent.

Speaker 1 read multiple items he said were on the canvass, including statements transcribed as: "1,213 votes casted. Jason Showalter was 699. Angie Cloyd with 591, and Brooke Redland with 531." These numbers were read aloud during the meeting transcript; the totals as read in sequence appear inconsistent when summed across races and were presented as read from local canvass materials rather than reconciled on the record.

After the vote, commissioners discussed custodial handling of ballots and records. Participants asked whether any signatures were needed and whether some materials should be destroyed; the group agreed to seal and retain the ballots in a box as directed and to follow standard custody procedures.

The canvas certification was the principal formal action on the item; no further procedural steps or legal challenges were recorded in the meeting transcript.
