What's at stake:
The latest Friday night results for most contests remained consistent with previous results.
Besides a tight Fresno City Council race and a tight Fresno unified school board race, most other election contests have fairly certain victors.
As of 4:58 p.m. on Nov. 15, Fresno County election officials counted 306,938 ballots. An estimated 13,200 Fresno County ballots still need to be counted.
The two incumbent Fresno County supervisors seeking reelection — Steve Brandau and Sal Quintero — appear to have lost to Fresno city councilmembers.
Garry Bredefeld got 53.7% of the vote in the District 2 supervisor race, ahead of Brandau by 5,477 votes. Luis Chavez got 56.4% of the vote in the District 3 supervisor race, with 4,355 more votes than Quintero.
With 67% of votes, incumbent Elizabeth Jonasson Rosas cruised to re-election representing the Roosevelt High area on the Fresno Unified School Board. She was 2,473 votes ahead of her challenger Joseph Aquino.
Incumbent Andy Levine pulled 43.7% of votes in his bid for reelection, representing the Fresno High area on the Fresno Unified School Board.
This election cycle seemed to be a good one for school bonds.
Both Fresno Unified’s Measure H and Central Unified’s Measure X have about 63.6% approval, comfortably sailing over the 55% minimum for school bonds.
Support for Clovis Unified’s Measure A has increased gradually since election night. As of Friday it was at 57.3% approval.
State Center Community College District’s Measure Q appears to be on the knife’s edge, sitting at 55.1% approval. It’s unclear if that could shift after all remaining ballots are counted in Fresno, Madera, Kings and Tulare counties.
The City of Clovis’ Measure Y, meant to generate revenue for the city’s police and fire departments, was still sitting around a 66% approval Friday night.
