turnout, and I think we will be this election as well.”
As of Friday afternoon, Yuba County still had 19 provisional and 262 challenged vote-bymail ballots that hadn’t been counted — challenged ballots are those that weren’t signed or the signature didn’t match the individual’s record.
Yuba County Deputy ClerkRecorder Donna Hillegass said her office followed up with each individual and provided ways to correct the issue. Residents that needed to correct their ballots had until 5 p.m. on Friday night.
“We are also conducting the canvass — the 1 percent manual tally — so we cannot certify the election results until that is done,” Hillegass said.
Neither county’s election office reported any issues with the counting process, though they stated the volume was greater than usual.
“We hope to certify as soon as possible,” Hillegass said. “It just depends on when all the activities are finished. We must certify by Dec. 1.”
