Monday, July 9, two Summit County Council members, Sally Elliott and Claudia McMullin, and one elected official, Summit County Auditor Blake Frazier, met at the Summit County Courthouse to count the final tally of Provisional and Absentee Ballot Summaries. Envelopes had to be opened, scanned to add to the Primary Election Day's total, which was held on June 26, 2012. Summit County Clerk Kent Jones and Deputy Clerk Ryan Cowley conducted the summary and scan information. Five out of the 138 provisional ballots were all that had to be disqualified. Reasons for disqualifica- tion were: never registered in Utah (2) voted on machine and provisional (2) and change of party (1). There were 708 absentee ballots issued, of which 425 were returned and 6 disqualified out of this number. The six disqualified were post-marked after the deadline. The process went well, quickly, and final ballot totals for the June 26 Primary Election announced within the hour. Liecciim summary Figport LIMN 1 13.
