We have just finished Provisional Ballots so we now have Official Election results. We will try to get them uploaded soon. However, it will still be a bit before all of the write-ins are tabulated.
A huge THANK YOU to everyone who helped with this Election! The poll workers, early vote workers, election central workers, set up and tear down crews and everyone from the county that joined forces to help wrap things up. We cannot thank everyone enough for all of the help.

Folks...If you have not received your ballot in the mail we highly suggest you vote in person! You may vote early or on Election Day. Even though you asked for a mail-in ballot does not stop you from voting in person!
We cannot prevent late or lost mail.
