Santa Clara County is still not done counting. The Registrar of Voters posted a fresh batch of unofficial results for the June 2 Statewide Direct Primary yesterday, as staff continue working through outstanding ballots. Another update is slated to drop by 5 PM tomorrow. Until the full canvass wraps, every number on the board remains unofficial.
County Points Voters to Its Own Scoreboard
The Registrar is directing everyone to the county’s official results viewer, linked from the office’s homepage and showing race-by-race and precinct totals as they stand, according to the Santa Clara County Registrar of Voters. That online tool refreshes as vote-by-mail, provisional and conditional registration ballots are processed by staff. The message from the county: check the official viewer for the latest numbers rather than relying on third-party election sites that might lag.
Why The Numbers Keep Moving
Those shifting totals are not a glitch. Late-arriving mail ballots and provisional or conditional-registration ballots can still shake up close contests. Mail ballots must be postmarked by Election Day and received by June 9, and counties have until July 2 to finish their official counts, with statewide certification set for July 10, according to the California Secretary of State. Translation for nervous campaigns and number-crunching locals: unofficial tallies can and likely will move in the days ahead, especially in tight races where every late batch gets dissected.
How To Track Your Ballot And The Count
Voters can see whether their own ballot made it into the pile by using the Registrar’s "Track Your Ballot" tool and can watch the countywide numbers climb on the live results page, both accessible from the Registrar’s homepage, according to the Santa Clara County Registrar of Voters. The next scheduled update is set for tomorrow by 5 PM, per the Registrar’s post on X. While the canvass is still underway, the county’s results viewer remains the go-to source for the most reliable local counts.
