ABOUT THESE RESULTS

·         The unofficial election results reported on this site are the results reported directly to the Office of the Secretary of State by the county.

·         Because media or other persons can also obtain vote totals directly from precinct election judges before precinct election results are reported to the auditor, the totals reported for a candidate by television, radio, or newspaper media may differ from the results reported on this site during the course of Election Night.

·         Within two days of the primary, the governing body of each city or school district is required by state law to meet to canvass and certify the primary election returns.  (Other procedures and deadlines may apply in a city governed by a city charter.)

·         The two candidates receiving the most votes for each office, or a number of candidates equal to twice the number to be elected to the office, advance to the general election.

·         If a recount occurs, the clerk of the city or school district will conduct the recount.  The governing body of the city or school district will reconvene to receive the recounted results and to resolve any remaining disputes about counting ballots for a candidate.  The final vote total from the recount may be different than the results originally certified. If so, the recounted total, as approved by the governing body, becomes the official election result.  (Other procedures and deadlines may apply in a city governed by a city charter.)
