2 Broadcaster Press June 23, 2015 www.broadcasteronline.com County Officials Prepare For Special Election BY SHAUNA MARLETTE shauna.marlette@plaintalk.net Registration for the upcoming June 30 Vermillion special election ended on Monday, however the preparation for the event is ongoing at City Hall. “Absentee voting can be done at the City Hall Finance office Monday-Friday from 8 a.m.-5 p.m.,” said city finance officer Mike Carlson. “The sample ballot has been approved and is available here at City Hall and are also available at the website. We have the absentee ballot application on our website, so if you are out of town you can download that, fill it out, have it notarized or send in a copy of a S.D. state identification card and we will send you a ballot. They have to be a registered voter within the city of Vermillion.” The sample ballot will run in the Plain Talk on June 26, however the wording is running the next few weeks issues, Carlson said. “Voting on the 30th will be held at the National Guard Armory,” he said. “Voting will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Absentee Voting ends at 5 p.m. on June 29. In encourage everyone to bring a valid form of identification, however if they do not have it they can fill an affidavit out at the voting site.” An affidavit will consist of filling out a piece of paper certifying that you are the person you say you are, even though you do not have your identification with you. “I have found over the years that if people forget their ID they don’t want to fill out the affidavit,” Carlson said. “Why not? It discourages them to have to run home and get their ID. Everyone gets worried when they have to fill out the form. I think they get worried with everyone behind them or in front of them seeing them fill out the form.” Carlson said the crews for running the election have been set and superintendents for the wards are in place. “I encourage people to come vote, either absentee or on that day,” Carlson said. “It doesn’t take a lot of time to come and vote.” A press release from the Vermillion Area Chamber and Development Company Board of Directors also is encouraging Vermillion voters to take advantage of the opportunity for their voices to be heard and vote on June 30th in the Special Election. “The Board of Directors recognizes the importance of this election, especially the opportunity for each and every resident in Vermillion to have and voice their opinion,” said Board President, Jim Brady. “We understand the two issues on the ballot could be a little confusing because of the ‘yes’ or ‘no’ options and which each of them mean. So, we want to make sure and do everything we can to have everyone The show will revisit the exciting time fifty years ago when the premier folk artist and songwriter of that generation inspired The Byrds and other folk and pop artists to enter a new era of musical exploration. Dylan had written stunning folk anthems like “Blowing in the Wind” that had made him the successor to Woody Guthrie and the darling of American folk music, but in 1965 The Bryds’ number-one hit pop recording of Dylan’s “Mr. Tambourine Man” and Dylan’s controversial performance at the Newport Folk Festival with amplified guitars proclaimed a new world.
