BREAKING NEWS: 379 MAIL-IN ABSENTEE BALLOTS FOUND IN DRAWER

20

CCO INFORMATION ABOUT MISPLACED ABSENTEE BALLOTS IS CORRECT

The City County Observer recently (a couple of days before the election) informed our readers, from a reliable source that around 400 absentee ballots were either rejected or wasn’t being counted in the final election results.  Representatives from the Democratic party approached County Clerk Debbie Stucki and she reassured them that the information concerning the 400 missing mailing ballots had no merit amd the CCO din’t know what there talking about.

It is now obvious that the information provided to the City County Observer was accurate.  This incident coupled with the other mistake made by the election office when they forgot too put stamps on return mailing ballots will cause County Clerk Debbie Stucki some major re-election problems.

THIS IS A BREAKING STORY AND WE SHALL UPDATE  YOU WHEN WE RECEIVE MORE INFORMATION.

ATTACHED BELOW IS AN OFFICIAL E-MAIL SENT TO US BY COUNTY CLERK DEBBIE STUCKI

Through the post-election audit process we have identified 379 ballots from the 5th Ward that were not included in Tuesdays unofficial results. These ballots were inadvertently not removed from locked storage and therefore not included in the unofficial election results. These ballots will be reviewed on Monday, November 9, 2015 at 9:00. Election results are unofficial until the County Election Board certifies them 10 days after the Election. The Election results will be certified on Friday, November 13, 2015 at 1:00.

Thank you,

Debbie Stucki, Secretary

County Election Board

First Lady Completes Art Exchange, Continues Building Japan-Indiana Ties

0

Following her return from Governor Mike Pence’s jobs and economic development mission to Japan last month, today First Lady Karen Pence completed the art exchange between fourth grade students in Columbus and its Japanese sister-city, Miyoshi City.

 

“It is an honor and privilege to continue building cultural ties between Indiana and Japan,” said First Lady Karen Pence. “What is significant and unique about this exchange is that it connects a cultural bridge between children of both Japan and Indiana. Not only is Columbus, Indiana, the sister city to Miyoshi City, Japan, but Southside Elementary School is the sister school to Miyoshigaoka Elementary School.”

 

The art exchange began on Aug. 26 when Mrs. Pence, a former art teacher, originally visited Southside Elementary School in Columbus and taught the students how to create “name creatures” in anticipation of exchanging the art pieces while in Japan. Today, Mrs. Pence shared the Japanese students’ artwork with the fourth grade students in Columbus, completing the art exchange.

 

In addition to sharing the pieces of art with the students, Mrs. Pence showed a video featuring Miyoshigaoka Elementary School students creating their artwork as well as sharing their experiences as students in Japan and friendship messages to the Columbus students. A similar video of Southside Elementary School students was shared with students in Japan. Also, Mrs. Pence presented the class with handmade gifts from the Miyoshi City fourth graders.

 

Serving in her role as Indiana’s Bicentennial Ambassador, Mrs. Pence also presented the school with an officially endorsed bicentennial children’s book entitled “The Gifts of Indiana,” which was created by students at Butler University.

 

Southside Elementary School and Miyoshigaoka Elementary School have an ongoing sister-school ambassador exchange, with teachers traveling to Miyoshi City as part of the exchange program. In August, during Mrs. Pence’s visit to Southside Elementary School, the school hosted visitors from Miyoshi City, Japan, as a part of the sister-city exchange program.

 

With several sister-city relationships throughout the state of Indiana, today’s exchange is part of an ongoing effort to strengthen sister-city relationships between Indiana and Japan. In 2013, Mrs. Pence conducted a similar art exchange between third grade students at Glen Acres Elementary School in Lafayette and Ota Elementary School, located in Lafayette’s Japanese sister city of Ota.

 

Attached are photos from today’s event. The first (Japan Gifts) features First Lady Karen Pence presenting gifts from Miyoshigaoka Elementary School to the fourth grade students of Southside Elementary. The second (Name Creatures) features Southside Elementary fourth grade students with the “name creatures” from their Japanese sister school, Miyoshigaoka Elementary School.
