Jefferson County Clerk Wes Wagner was criticized by two members of the county council about the late posting of vote totals on election night.
Despite harsh criticism from two Jefferson County Council members about later-than-normal vote totals reported in Jefferson County on election night , County Clerk Wes Wagner said he is "very happy with the effort" made by vote counters in his office. Election returns were not posted to the county clerk's website until 10:37 p.m. Wagner said, when 100 percent of the votes had been tabulated. There were no partial returns posted during the evening. The development drew sharp words from Jefferson County Council Member Don Bickowski (District 1) and District 2 council member Renee Reuter. "I'm pretty angry about it." Bickowski said Tuesday. He drove to Hillsboro Tuesday night and obtained a paper copy of the vote totals from the county clerk'…

Renee Reuter (R) has won back her District 2 seat on the Jefferson County Council, which covers Fenton, portions of Arnold and Imperial. Patch called Reuter, who just got off the phone with election judges in Hillsboro, and she declared victory. "I have some very exciting news," she said. "I won the race by 53.77 percent. I literally just hung up the phone with the election judges 30 seconds before you called." She said her opponent Cheryl Hermann (D) received 46.08 percent of the vote. Hermann has served on the Fox C-6 School Board since 2000. Hermann told Patch, "I appreciate how Renee ran such a clean election campaign and I wish her and the rest of the County Council the best."

At this time two years ago, the people of Jefferson County were about to decide who would represent them on the first-ever Jefferson County Council. I and six others were honored with the privilege to serve our community on the new county council. Once again it is election time and the people who reside in Council Districts 2, 4, and 6 will have to make a choice as to who will represent them. For the past 21 months, one council member has worked tirelessly to serve the people of her district. That representative is the first Council Chair, Renee Reuter. I can remember one of the first constituent requests that Renee and I received last year. It was a gentleman who lived in Ward 4 of Arnold, which is in Renee’s district. He had an issue …

To the editor: What occurred last the February 14, 2012 county council meeting regarding the numbering of the legislative bills was nothing more than a simple administrative oversight, one that my administration takes very seriously. Council Woman (Renee) Reuter is correct that the bills did not follow the historical system of numbering. What occurred was that the sequential numbering from January carried over to February. There were no duplicate numbers and all bill numbers matched whet was on the agenda as posted and required by law. Contrary to Council Woman Reuter's position, the numbering of the bills has little legal significance. What is significant is that when the bills are duly and legally passed, as they were, that the ordinance…
