Video: Amory Ballot Inspection Could Set State Precedent
[syndicaster id=’5491820′]
AMORY, Miss. (WCBI) — An Amory group may help set a state precedent Tuesday when it inspects ballots from the city’s failed alcohol referendum two months ago.
City Clerk Lee Barnett and a Let’s Grow Amory representative will conduct the court-ordered inspection, then present their final findings to a judge.
It’s the first challenge to a special referendum in the state, and could help provide guidance for future challenges.
Some voters complained the ballot was unclear, or that they didn’t see a place to vote on the beer referendum.
205 individuals voted on the liquor measure, and not on the beer measures. Both issues were narrowly defeated.
