2. COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS
o INTERNATIONAL CODE COUNCIL BO~_RD OF DIRECTORS REELECTION
OF MR. BILL DUPLER
Mr. Ramsey commended Mr. Dupler for being reelected to
the International Code Council Board of Directors. He
stated it is a great honor for the county to have its
Building Official in this role.
Mr. Ramsey provided details surrounding the decision
made by the Electoral Board in conjunction with the
Police Department to take extra security measures at
polling places in the county on November 2, 2004. He
stated the decision to place a police officer at each of
the polling places was made based upon a conversation
with Defense Secretary Tom Ridge advising that there is
evidence regarding a possible attempt to disrupt the
election process, as well as guidance from the
Governor's Office advising all local governments to take
additional security measures to ensure that the public
can exercise its voting right without fear or
interruption. He stated he has received much feedback
commending the county for taking this measure and noted
that he learned today from a major national news network
that over 100 jurisdictions in the country have been
identified that are doing the same thing as the county
and questioning why others were not doing this.
Mr. King stated he supports the decision to protect the
freedoms of our citizens and complimented Mr. Ramsey on
being proactive. He further stated he is appalled at
the newspaper headlines indicating that armed police
04-845
10/27/04
officers will be placed at county polling places,
indicating that all police officers are armed and the
public welcomes them when they arrive on the scene of an
accident, are present to provide support at athletic
events, or provide other assistance when called upon.
He stated the majority of the people he has talked to
not only support the decision, but appreciate the
efforts that have been made to protect our freedom to go
to the polling place and vote. He requested that
citizens consider thanking the police officers present
at polling places when they vote on election day.
Mrs. Humphrey expressed concerns that she was unaware of
the need for additional security measures at polling
places when she responded to questions from the Richmond
Times-Dispatch regarding her thoughts about placing
police officers at polling places. She further stated
that, because of the threats that have been received
regarding attempts to disrupt the election process, she
supports the decision to place police officers at
polling places to maintain an orderly election process.
Mr. Miller stated he is outraged and incensed that the
same people continuously seek to attack the county and
have put down our police officers who place themselves
at risk for our freedoms on a daily basis. He further
stated he has no reason to second guess the decision to
place police officers at polling places, and he looks
forward to having them there.
