Voters can also check social media and the elections website for updates, Elections Communications Consultant Erik Burton added.

Board chair Dele Lowman Smith addressed a public comment about the May 24 primary election results. A statement is forthcoming, she said.

“There were not new votes. There has been some confusion as folks have expressed surprise and the change in outcomes. Personally, I don’t understand why they’re surprised. We stated the same night that the vote numbers were misallocated,” said Lowman Smith.
