June 24, 2009 Wanda Neal, Administrator of Elections, Retires Effective June 30

At the county commission meeting on June 18 and in the June 19th edition of the local "news"paper, Wanda Neal's retirement from the position of Administrator of Elections in Hamblen County was finally announced.

I mentioned her retirement in several previous posts, here, here, and here.

The paper added the "news" that there are already four applicants for the $62,000/year position, that the position will be filled in a meeting of the Hamblen County Election Commission on June 26, and that others can still apply. The four current applicants are apparently Manny Bedwell, Nina Fullington, Jeff Gardner, and Stewart Leonard.

The paper did not state when the application process was first opened or if the position had ever previously been advertised to the public. The paper did not state how long these four applications had been turned in.

The article did state that others can still apply, but there was no deadline given for additional applications.
