Mercer County board of elections held two special meetings last week which included six hours of executive sessions. Following the Friday morning two-hour session, no action was taken.

Bachelor has been acting safety service director since June. He resigned from his city council seat to temporarily take the post following the unexpected resignation of Jeff Hazel.
