One odd thing with the numbers reported – all of the Election Day Other write-in votes went away (all now reporting 0). That was not the case prior to the updates after canvassing on November 5th. I am sure (or at least hope) those numbers will be corrected soon.
Here is the future ballot canvassing schedule:
- Sunday November 8, 2020 – Opening/Scanning of Mail-In Ballots – Lake Elkhorn Gymnasium & Board of Elections Office
- Thursday November 12, 2020 @ 9:00 AM – Provisional Canvass & Opening/Scanning of Mail-In Ballots – Lake Elkhorn Gymnasium & Board of Elections Office
