Davis Election Board announced members of a new "vote center committee" who will <br /> Sixth District make recommendations to the Board of Commissioners. The media also reported <br /> Derek D. Dieter that the St. Joseph County Election Board also recommended that vote centers <br /> At Large should be created. <br /> Gavin Ferlic In light of these developments, we are enclosing a copy of a letter which was sent <br /> At Large on April 23, 2012 and was signed by all members of the Common Council. That <br /> Ietter recommended that a broad-based Study Committee be established which <br /> Karen L. White includes a representative from the South Bend Common Council. <br /> At Large <br /> We note that the Election Board's "vote center committee" includes three (3) <br /> persons representing the Republican Party and three (3) persons who represent the <br /> Democratic Party; as well as two (2) "advisory non-recommending"individuals. <br /> The Council would like to have the opportunity to be heard by the vote center <br /> committee, and yourselves. We therefore ask whether a representative from the <br /> Common Council will be asked to serve as an advisory member? <br />
