Special Elections Committee Meeting Planned
If you happen to dig through the Reston Association Calendar, you will find that they have quietly scheduled an Elections Committee Meeting for Monday from 3pm to 5pm at the Administrative Offices @ 1930 Isaac Newton Square. Apparently the committee will discuss the contested elections results and will discuss if and how the plan to handle the 24-25 votes that had issues during the election. Apparently there were a number of voters from Northpoint who were only given the option to vote for the at-large position when they voted online. When these voters voted for the at-large position, they system told them they were complete, and they were later told they could send in their paper ballots. There is a question as to if the paper ballots were counted or “kicked out as duplicates” if the voters selected both their at-large candidate and their northpoint candidate.
Al this and the untold number of other “kicked out’ votes for one reason or another, further call in to question the results of the Northpoint director race where Mr. Greeneberg lost by (1 ballot / 2 votes) while the rest of the brown’s chapel slate won by landslides.
As more and more information about the election comes to light, it appears worse and worse for the organizational abilities of the Reston Association and the legitimacy of the non-certified election results.
The Reston community deserves fair and impartial elections and to have the third party CPA firm certify the election results.
