Election Night Process
Like other California counties, San Bernardino releases staged unofficial updates before ballots are certified, so early leads like these can change. Certified results will ultimately determine the outcome of the Redlands races.
Redlands residents in the affected districts will see who leads their council and school board seats as counting continues. Voters should watch for updated totals before drawing firm conclusions about the outcome.
The takeaway
Early leads offer a snapshot, not a final result, so readers should check updated and certified totals from the county registrar before drawing conclusions about the Redlands races.
What happens next
The San Bernardino County Registrar of Voters is scheduled to post its next results update at 10 p.m. Tuesday.
