California voters have until Tuesday, Nov. 5, to cast their votes in the 2024 general election .
As local and state officials prepare for Election Day, ballot counting has already begun in Stanislaus County.
You may be wondering what results will be available on election night.
Here’s a look at what we’ll know and when:
How many Stanislaus County votes are counted so far?
Donna Linder, the Stanislaus County Registrar of Voters, said there are more than 290,000 registered voters in the county.
“We get a daily update of ballots received,” Linder said.
As of Wednesday, Oct. 30, she said the county had received about 68,000 ballots.
How long does it take for elections officials to tally results?
After Election Day, Linder said, officials must wait seven days to receive ballots postmarked on or before Election Day.
“We could finish an election in 17 to 20 days historically, but with the new state law, we cannot finish until Dec. 3,” Linder said.
