How it all unfolds

Jun. 25—Students attending the Wilson County Election Commission Election Institute can learn just how much preparation and planning goes into pulling off local elections.

The county's leading election administrator Tammy Smith conducted the institute, alongside former election administrator Phillip Warren.

One of the students attending a recent session, Glynn Caughman, has been a poll worker before, but he indicated that he can always learn something new. He encouraged others interested in the process to attend one sometime.
