It was not clear to me exactly how or when the candidates were notified. One lady who observed with me got on her phone and made some calls, but I'm sure the office notified the candidates at some point. I should also note that the votes were called out aloud, so anyone could record them and know the results. I was actually surprised at how open it all was. All we had to do to watch was state that we were interested members. Also, it was never clear to me whether this was a standard procedure or just a one off. It was the only time I observed.
