Comal County commissioners unanimously approved the November 3, 2020 general-election results as presented at a November 16 special meeting.
The unanimous vote gave Comal County voters a recorded county-level approval of the November 3 results as presented.
The action appears in a two-document county package. The meeting notice establishes the date, 10 a.m. start time, New Braunfels location and single scheduled item. The minutes supply the names, motion, second, vote and end time that establish what the court actually did.
One Item, One Recorded Vote
The meeting notice scheduled one item: canvassing the November 3, 2020 general-election results at 10 a.m. Nov. 16 in New Braunfels.
County Judge Sherman Krause presented the canvass. Commissioner Scott Haag moved to approve the results as presented, and Commissioner Jen Crownover seconded him. The minutes record every member voting yes. That sequence matters because the agenda proposed a canvass; the later minutes establish the action and outcome.
The attendance list names Krause and commissioners Donna M. Eccleston, Haag, Kevin K. Webb and Crownover, along with County Clerk Bobbie Koepp. With one member from each precinct listed, the minutes account for the full five-member court that acted on the item.
The special session began at 10 a.m. in the Commissioners Courtroom at 100 Main Plaza. The court recessed at 10:12 a.m. after Krause said there was no other business. The 12-minute span fits the notice’s one-item agenda and the minutes’ single recorded action.
Where the Supporting Figures Lead
The minutes direct readers to three supporting records: county canvass results, cumulative results and slides read by County Judge Sherman Krause.
Those references are the bridge between the court’s approval and the underlying election figures. They identify the specific files to trace when examining candidate, precinct, turnout and vote information. The motion and vote can be verified directly in the minutes; the referenced files are the records residents would inspect for the canvass detail.
County Clerk Bobbie Koepp attested on November 18 that the minutes accurately accounted for the court’s authorized proceedings. That signature and date close the meeting record two days after the special session.
