Officials: Mix-up prompted councilor-elect’s video warning about voting in Springfield
9+ hour, 50+ min ago (771+ words) SPRINGFIELD " City Councilor-elect Justin Hurst said he has lost trust in the accuracy of Springfield's Nov. 4 election results after officials gave him a list of returns that showed votes in three precincts were absent from the tally. Election officials, however, said the office inadvertently provided Hurst's team with an earlier, unofficial version of the election count. Election night tallies often vary from the results that officials eventually certify, a state elections spokesperson told The Republican.

Hurst posted a video to Facebook on Sunday, saying he believed the city's election's…...
