The Board of Supervisors, District 2 election recount is now terminated.


The County Clerk-Recorder has received a request from Ms. Darcia Stebbens to halt the recount process for the District 2, Supervisorial contest. Elections Code 15626 requires the elections official to continue the recount on a daily basis, pending the receipt of the advance daily deposit (see Elections Code 15624). California Code of Regulations, Title 2 section 20815 (g), states that “If the advance deposit is not paid by a particular requestor, the elections official will terminate the recount of precincts specified by that requestor.”

Because of this notification from Ms. Stebbens and that the daily deposit was not received, the recount process for the District 2 contest that was requested is hereby terminated immediately.

I am incredibly grateful to all of the election staff and observers who gave their time unselfishly to this process.
