According to Chester County Administrator of Elections, Kathy Vest, the initial unofficial results of the Chester County General election were incorrect due to a media stick issue that occurred at the Deanburg precinct.
“On election night, there was an issue with the media stick for one precinct that resulted in the votes being recorded twice. During our audit and reconciliation process, the error was found and corrected,” she said.
After the error was fixed, Ann Moore replaced Chris Dunbar in the District 3 Commissioner race. Moore’s votes went from 233 to 221 and Dunbar’s votes went from 245 to 212. Other candidates’ vote counts in District 3 changed but Moore replacing Dunbar is the only effect the error caused. Johnny Garner and Carolyn Higgins still won the other two District 3 Commissioner seats. See https://votechestercountytn.gov for complete corrected results.
