Yolo County schedules election updates and manual tally

County sets results process

Yolo County has scheduled election-results updates and a manual tally. The county’s action creates a process for releasing updates as results are reported and for conducting a manual review after voting.

The schedule is the central development. It concerns how the county will communicate election results and carry out the manual tally, rather than a candidate, campaign or policy issue.

Updates and manual tally

Election-results updates give the public information as the count moves forward. The manual tally is a separate step in which election materials are reviewed by hand. Together, the two parts address both public reporting and the county’s counting process.

The county’s announcement connects the updates with the manual tally. That means residents following the election can watch for the county’s scheduled results information and for the tally process identified by the county.

What residents can follow

The key point is that Yolo County has set these activities on a schedule. The county is responsible for carrying out the results updates and manual tally.

Residents can use the county’s scheduled updates to follow the reporting process. They can also watch for information about the manual tally as that review proceeds. Winters Express reported on the county’s scheduling of the two activities.
