Chancery Clerk Quint Carver reports that all five of Yazoo County’s election commissioners are properly certified.
During the Board of Supervisors meeting Monday the board questioned why certificates of training were only being presented for District 1 and District 2.
Carver said he learned after the meeting that only two commissioners were supposed to represent Yazoo County at this particular training, and all five election commissioners have received all of their required training.
“They are completely certified,” Carver said.
Yazoo County’s election commissioners are:
District 1: Billy Quimby
District 2: Virginia Mathews
District 3: Gretta Winters
District 4: Sylvia Vandevere
District 5: Mattie Washington
Dear Editor:
In the 6 April 2013 edition of The Yazoo Herald you published a letter from Cynthia Fuller, "Thanks to (Van) Foster for helping get bridge replaced."
After reading this lettter, I had the impression that the bridge was completed and traffic was moving along normally.
Wrong! Last Sunday I was on my way to homecoming at Providence Baptist Church. I turned north onto old 49 and saw the signs that the bridge was out. I assumed that they hadn't gotten around to removing the signs. I expected to cross Thompson Creek on the new bridge. When I approached the creek the road was barricaded and construction equipment was down in the creek.
Perhaps The Herald can keep us updated as to the progress being made on the new bridge.
