Vote Recount Confirms Quoddy Bay LNG Agreement Approved
The Bangor Daily News reports that a recount in Perry, Maine, produced the exact same 229-211 tally as originally reported, confirming local approval of a deal in which Quoddy Bay LNG has agreed to pay $3.6 million per year for permission to locate the terminal’s LNG storage tanks in the town. Attorneys representing the recount petitioners plan to cross-reference voter rolls with the ballots counted to ensure that there are no discrepancies.
