Henry County election board seeks changes

The Henry County Board of Elections and Registration wants to see legislation that will allow a couple of changes in its structure.

A request for the Henry County Board of Commissioners to pass a resolution in support of the proposed action failed by a 3-3 vote, but the election board can move forward and ask the county’s legislative delegation to move forward anyway if it chooses to.

The election board is asking for legislation that would change the term of its administrative director and also remove a current prohibition against the board taking any action without a member-at-large in place.
