New Berlin election results to be available via live streaming

In what New Berlin City Clerk Kari Morgan calls another initiative to increase government transparency and communication with the community, people will be able to watch live as election results are entered onto a spread sheet for Tuesday's primary election.

Five mayoral candidates are vying for two spots in the general election on April 2.

The results can be viewed live on the city's cable channel 25 or on the city's website.

Results will be entered by ward into a results spreadsheet with live polling location results first and absentee (or central count) results second. Finally, the results will be merged for a total outcome.

To view the process on computers through live streaming, people can copy and paste the link into their Internet browsers. The link is http://meetings.newberlin.org/sirepub/mtgviewer.aspx?meetid=902&doctype=AGENDA

Or they can logon to the city's website at newberlin.org and click on the minutes/agendas/meeting videos link.

Or those with cable television can tune in to the city's cable channel 25.

Results will start to be entered after the polls close at 8 p.m.

The final election results spreadsheet will be posted on the city's website following election day at http://www.newberlin.org/index.aspx?NID=516.
