2,253 Shasta County Ballots Remain Uncounted – Next Update Dec. 3

— SHASTA COUNT ELECTIONS DEPARTMENT

Tom Toller, Shasta County Clerk and Registrar of Voters, wishes to inform the public and
the media the election results were updated on November 27th at 8:30 pm on our website.
We will release the next update on December 3rd.

Voters who receive signature verification letter requesting additional information must
cure their ballot by December 1st. Instructions on how to respond to the request are
included in the signature verification letter.

Below is a report on the estimated count of unprocessed ballots that we have in our office.
It is just that, an estimate. We are still processing these ballots, including verifying the
signature and the eligibility of the voter. There may be ballots added to this count or
removed as necessary.

We would like to remind the public that all ballot types in this election have 2 ballot cards.
When calculating the number of ballots that are counted, the system utilizes Ballot Card A
to document the number of registered voters that voted. This means that the number of
damaged cards does not accurately reflect the entirety of the situation with the ballots
that were rejected due to the print overspray. Ballot Card B has a higher rejection rate
than Ballot Card A. We have included a separate line that estimates the number of Ballot
Card B’s that are rejected and waiting for duplication.

Thank you for your patience.

SHASTA COUNTY

Sixth Estimated Unprocessed Ballot Report

Vote By Mail: 493
Provisional: 202
CVR Provisional: 219
Other – Card A: 1339
(Includes unprocessed Ballot Card A that are
damaged, need to be remade, or require further
review)
*Other – Card B: 4384
Challenged Ballots (left to
cure): 232
Total Unprocessed: 2253
*Other-Card B is not included in the Total Unprocessed Number.
We have been alerted that there may be some confusion about language on our website
that states “100% of precincts reporting.” This refers specifically to ballots cast at the
polling place on Election Day only. It allows voters and the public generally to track the
progress and return of precinct ballots on election night. As stated above, there are many
ballots left to add into the count in the coming weeks.
