Maybe that should have been conveyed to the members BEFORE we voted. Our instructions were to send an e-mail to each of the three of you! It did not instruct as to addressed to one and cc'd to the other two, or 3 separate e-mails. I sent three separate e-mails........ Hopefully all three of you received it. I agree some sort of confirmation that our votes have been received would be great!

Laverne, While EC procedures (which we try to follow as closely as is possible for local elections) is that they don't reveal whether someone has voted or not, since you have yourself revealed that you have voted in the MN SC Election, the headers for the email containing your vote reveal that you did not send separate emails, but one email to the three members of the committee -- just as we had requested.
