COUNTY News:

Members of the public are invited to gather at the Los Alamos County Municipal Building this evening to view election results.

Room 110 next to the Council Chambers, as well as the lobby, will be open.

Voters must be in line by 7 p.m. to vote at the Municipal Building, Golf Course Community Building or White Rock Library’s Multi-purpose Room. Residents entering the Municipal Building after 7 p.m. today to await results in Room 110  are advised that voters may still be in line to cast their vote and thus electioneering regulations apply within 100 feet of the building.

Results from voting – even those results from Absentee Ballots – are not expected to be posted until 8 p.m. today.

Once available, a printout of the results will be displayed in the Municipal Building on white boards in Room 110 and in the lobby near the Customer Care Center. They also will be projected onto the LCDs in the lobby and in Room 110. Council Chambers will be closed to the public until post-election activities have been completed by poll workers, and then will be open to the public for viewing of state-wide televised voting results.

Laptops set up in the lobby also will be available to view state-wide results. Free public Internet access ialso is available in the building. Internet “real time” streaming of results will not be available on the County’s website, however, the results will be posted to the Clerk’s webpage as a PDF file once they have been posted in the lobby.

For additional information about voting today, contact the County Clerk’s Office at 505.662.8010.
