The city clerk of Madison has resigned following an internal investigation related to the failure to count nearly 200 ballots during the recent elections. This decision comes after a series of errors in the election process, which led to increased scrutiny and criticism. The clerk had previously been placed on leave while the investigation was ongoing, and now, amid the chaos of uncounted ballots and an ongoing review of election procedures, the resignation marks a significant moment in addressing the electoral mishaps faced by the city.
