Speaker roster — Vigo County Commissioners, 2026-08-25
Resolved against Ledger/Meetings/2026-08-25-vigo-county-commissioners.md. No
agenda or prior Vigo County Commissioners roster exists in the vault yet
(Ledger/About/coverage.md lists this body as "Not yet" covered), so there is
no closed-set roll call or prior-meeting roster to check names against — every
assignment here rests on transcript-internal evidence only.
Only the 7 labels carrying substantial speech are resolved below. 19 sparse
labels merged into <other> are out of scope for this roster.
Notes on individual labels
- speaker_16 — the chair/president. Runs the meeting start-to-finish
(minutes, claims docket, the Kenworthy appointment vote, public comment, and
recess) but is never named by anyone in this transcript.
role_only. - speaker_18 — the county auditor presenting the claims docket, identified
by function ("auditor sir...") rather than by name.
role_only. - speaker_27 — a commissioner: makes the motion to approve Joseph
Kenworthy's appointment and later speaks at length about the airport
board/air show. No name recoverable.
role_only. - speaker_44 — Danny Wayne, a resident presenting on behalf of Ileana
Vision Connection. Self-identified by name during public comment and
addressed by name twice more by the chair.
confirmed. - speaker_61 — a commissioner running a closing "anything else" round,
asking after a person named "Chris" and "our attorney" — evidence points to
this speaker being neither Chris nor the attorney, but their own name is not
recoverable.
role_only. - speaker_69 — a resident, apparently one of Danny Wayne's two fellow
Ileana Vision Connection staff, answering a logistics question about the
Saturday fundraiser. No self-identification.
role_only. - speaker_73 — a commissioner, thanking Danny Wayne and moving the meeting
along. Distinct from speaker_16 (the established chair) on content, but no
name recoverable.
role_only.
No merge_with candidates: no two labels carry evidence strong enough to
assert they are the same person, despite speaker_16 and speaker_73 both
addressing Danny Wayne — that is two commissioners doing the same courteous
thing, not one person split across labels, absent stronger evidence.
No voice-match data exists for this meeting; all basis entries are textual.
