City election board to study precinct boundary changes
Commissioner Williams will convene four meetings in early January to consider redrawing precinct boundaries before the city election. The aim is to balance voter counts per precinct while keeping male registration around 500, reallocating voters from Second Ward to create more uniform polling districts. Possible adjustments include shifting Second Ward voters to the First precinct and creating a new Fourth precinct in the Third Ward.
