OKEMOS - HOMTV strives to inform residents about candidates and proposals on the ballot, that is why the "Election Central" tab on the HOMTV website was created.

The portal allowed voters to get to know their candidates, hear what they have to say about local, state, and national issues.

Candidate pictures, links to campaigns and social media, and other election information can be found in one location.

"Election Central is basically Meridian Township resident's one-stop shopping center for election related information. We really want to educate people, so they can make an informed decision at the polls" said Communications Director Deborah Guthrie.

HOMTV will also begin live election night coverage on August 5 beginning at 8:00 p.m. with detailed analysis of races and ballot proposals, as well as live up to the minute results as ballots are counted.
