Good morning!

We're a little sleepy but we're open for business. Our last precinct reported at 9:53 PM. Thanks for all the compliments. 

Congratulations to all the winners and thanks also to all the candidates who didn't make it. It takes a lot to put your name in front of the people and a campaign is a big personal sacrifice.

Special thanks to all the poll workers and my staff, who were working till almost midnight bringing back supplies and double-checking numbers. We had a couple small corrections on write-ins and uncontested races, but no changes in candidate totals in contested races.

Our provisional ballot board meets Thursday at 1 PM. We don't have a count yet on how many ballots there will be. We had 3 as of 6 PM yesterday and we know there were more before 9. There's not enough to change any races, but we count every ballot we can.

We could still get some mail but the odds shrink each day. They needed to be postmarked Monday or earlier. Two ballots were in today's mail, but both were postmarked yesterday and can't be counted.

All the results are unofficial until the canvass, where the Board of Supervisors officially certifies the results, on Tuesday, June 10. After that we start getting ready for November 4! We also have a bond election in the Solon School District on September 9.
