Every candidate in this election in Canyon County got a personal invitation to come to the County Elections Office and witness accuracy testing of our voting machines. Brad Jackson, Deputy Clerk for Canyon County walked all of us in attendance through the process.
Your votes maintain a high degree of security from the time your ballot is filled out to the time it is counted electronically by the voting machine. Write-in ballots are automatically segregated from ballots that have printed names on them. There are only two write-in candidates in this election, one in Caldwell and one in Notus.
Early voting ends Friday and the election happens Tuesday of next week on the 5th of November. It is predicted to be another low turnout election for an off year round voting. (3,000 people voted in the last Mayoral Election in Caldwell.)

A public discourse on the issues of the day makes the world a better place.
We welcome comments but they will be moderated and edited if too long or do not have anything to do with the post.
Agree or disagree just do it without profanity or it won't get posted. Try to keep your comments to no more than 300 words. Too long and I will try to edit it down or simply delete the comment. The whole idea is to get people to read your comment. Don't use 10 words when one will do the job.
It's OK to have a difference of opinion but keep it civil. I have used the "delete" feature on myself at times.
The ANONYMOUS feature for comments seems to be the most user friendly. People have commented they have difficulty with the other methods of posting comments.
