Calling out the votes as each precinct comes in and reports on primary results. At the table, from left, clockwise, Election Commissioners Billy Curry (Republican), Ben Loy (Democrat), Sheriff Harrison Moss, Sheila Blair, County Clerk Lisa Lee. At right, County Clerk Deputies Vicki Hodges and Macy Feese enter information from chips brought in from each precinct and enter them into a new computer installed by Clerk Lisa Lee. In scant minutes a printer spit out 10 printouts for the the tabulators at the table and Adair County's fierce watchdog media outlets. It was one of the most eventul tabulations ever, starkly contrasting with November 3, 2014 General Election, still under intense scrutiny, and still not fully decided. - ED WAGGENER.

2015-05-20 - Adair Annex, 424 Public Square, Columbia, KY - Photo by Linda Waggener, CM photo.
First time poll worker Tom Brock - but veteran Adair County Road Department employee - and Alice Graves, arrived with the Milltown precinct vote, the only Adair County precinct which votes at a Greensburg address. The voting place is in Clay Ridge, KY, at Garrison Construction Company. Brock was asked by County Clerk Lisa Greer how the day went and he beamed assurance that seemed to say it was a piece of cake compared to his day job. The precinct was also best for Hal Heiner, who had the backing of the Larry Legg organization. Heiner received 43 votes to Jamie Comer's 51 votes, and 26 for eventual (for the nonce, at least) statewide winner Matt Bevin. Democrat Jack Conway had 85% of the vote from Milltown.
