Members of the Clay County Sheriff's Office dealt a second blow the Sheriff Rick Beseler today.  The Correctional Deputies participated in a secret vote on whether or not to retain their Union representation through the Fraternal Order of Police.  Sixty -four percent of all eligible members voted and sixty percent of all voting members voted to retain their Union representation. 

As I have started keeping up with the internal issues in the Sheriff's Office, two Unions (1 for Sworn Deputy Sheriff's, 1 for Correctional Deputies) were retained by a commanding vote and the third Union (for Correctional Supervisors) did not pass, but support increased by 30% more than the previous year's vote.
