SUBJECT: Acceptance of Official Canvass and Statement of Votes for November 5, 2024, Election
SOURCE: Administrative Services
COMMENT: On November 5, 2024, a municipal election was held for the purpose of electing individuals to the available four-year term City Council Offices in Districts 3 and 4. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 9 of the City Charter, after any municipal election, the elections official must duly canvass the returns and declare the results thereof. The City's election was conducted as a consolidated general election with election services provided by Tulare County. Pursuant to Elections Code, the County Registrar of Voters conducted its official canvass and certified the results on December 3, 2024.
Pursuant to the Certified Statement of Votes, the results for Districts 3 and 4 are as follows:
District Three – One four-year term City Council Office:
A.J. Rivas* 1,327 votes 51.35%
Timothy Vanni 1,257 votes 48.65%
District Four – One four-year term City Council Office:
Ed McKervey* 2,575 votes 71.81%
Donald “Don” Weyhrauch 1,011 votes 28.19%
