Election evaluation
Clerks detail how things went for the general election BY MARK VEST mvest@candgnews.com
FARMINGTON/FARMINGTON HILLS GREATER WEST BLOOMFIELD — With the general election having come and gone, local clerks can now breathe a sigh of relief. This year, residents had more options than ever to vote, and clerks from local municipalities recently shared details about how things went this election season. This year, as has been the case in the past, voters could vote in person or via an absentee ballot. However, what was new for this year’s general election was the opportunity to vote early, as there were nine days of early voting prior to Nov. 5.
