§ 15206 Counting Board Dismissal Authority

• •The elections official can kick someone off a counting board.
• •A deputy chosen by the official can do the same thing.
• •The order to leave must be obeyed.

During a close election, a board member starts arguing loudly and slowing down the count.

The elections official can tell that person to leave the board, and the person must go, because the law gives the official that power.
