More Than 360,000 LA County Ballots Still Uncounted

The LA County Registrar’s Office announced earlier this week that 365,820 LA County ballots still need to be processed in the June 7 election.

The next count update will be released on Friday.

In local City Council races, Jason Lyon remains above the 50% percent threshold in District 7 and incumbent John J. Kennedy currently has more than 60% of the vote in the District 3 race against challenger Brandon Lamar.

The estimated number of outstanding ballots to be processed is 365,820, including 365,000 vote by mail ballots, 570 conditional voter registration ballots and 250 provisional ballots.

The majority of vote by my ballots included in the estimate are those postmarked by Election Day and received in the mail through Tuesday, in addition to those returned at an Official Ballot Drop Box or Vote Center on Election Day.

All remaining ballots require validation – including signature verification, prior to clearance for tally.

The registrar has 30 days to process and verify the outstanding ballots to ensure every eligible ballot cast by Election Day is counted.

The next post-election ballot count will be on Friday, June 17.

Updates will be released on Tuesdays and Fridays until July 1, if needed.
