Official semi-official election-night results

Dan Andries 1,022, Mark Bell 699, Debbie Guidi 693, Bob Roddick 659 and Nicholas Daniel 653. Guidi leads Roddick by 34 candidate selections for the third seat.

What the local contest means

Five candidates competed for three governing-board seats. The fourth- and fifth-place candidates are also separated by only six selections. These local utility board votes matter in an unincorporated area without a city council; they are not certified and can change as remaining valid ballots are counted.

Why the results are not final

Placer County Elections lists this as its election-night semi-official report, data refreshed November 4 at 12:16 a.m. Pacific. The report states all assigned election-night precincts have reported in these races. However, further eligible mailed, provisional or otherwise verified ballots may be processed in the official canvass. The counts and rankings are not certified, and no November 5 post-election tally is claimed here.
