New Vote Totals Released by Shasta County Elections Office

On Tuesday, November 19, around 5 pm, the Shasta County Elections Office released new vote totals from ballots processed so far. Out of about 89,000 ballots cast across Shasta County this election, about 14,000 remain to be counted.

Notably that total includes only A cards, or the first card of each ballot. An additional approximately 14,000 B cards, or the second card of each ballot, also still remain to be counted. That’s due to an ink overspray issue.
