With a couple more weeks left before having to certify the Nov. 5 election results, Stanislaus County Clerk Recorder/Registrar of Voters Donna Linder on Tuesday, Nov. 19 released an update on the canvass of the Presidential General Election. Additional vote by mail ballots have been added to the election night vote count, with 194,536 ballots having now been counted. The unofficial updated tally results have been posted on the election website, www.stanvote.gov

Linder said the office continues processing of 313 provisionally voted ballots, and 3529 conditional ballots. The one percent hand tally of the vote is in progress. Duplication of damaged ballots will continue through canvas.

Results are not official until all ballots are counted and certified; many races appear to have winners but no final determination has been made.

Per Assembly Bill 3184 all California counties are prohibited from certifying prior to Dec. 3, 2024, said Linder. Therefore, the certified results for the Nov. 5, 2024, Presidential General Election will be provided on Dec. 3, 2024 with winners for the various offices on the ballot confirmed at that time.
