All Charlestown local candidates have at least 50 certified signatures posted on the Secretary of State website
By Will Collette
As of Wednesday noon, all Charlestown candidate have filed enough certified Charlestown voter signatures on their Nomination papers to qualify for the November ballot. Yesterday, Dr. Jack Donoghue shows only 12 certified signatures, but today, that number is up to 102!
The
deadline for town candidates to file at least 50 valid signatures was 4 PM on Friday the Thirteenth. Even though the deadline has now passed, this tally is
not necessarily final.
According to the Secretary of State's
manual for candidates, the final number is posted on July 19 (tomorrow).
Some candidates may have submitted signatures right before the deadline. Those names are not reflected in the tally. The final Secretary of State count is supposed to be posted on Thursday.
To track the list for yourself, go to the RI Secretary of State's database by
clicking here. Then, under City/Town, pick Charlestown from the pull-down menu.
The last column of numbers is the number of names our Town Board of Canvassers have certified as valid and sent on to the state.
Keep reading for the count as Sunday afternoon.
