(WGTD)---An unprecedented meltdown of some sort in Racine County's tabulation of Tuesday's vote totals is still preventing the county clerk's office from providing the numbers.
Late last night, the office posted ward results for all but the city's polling places, leaving candidates to add up the numbers themselves.
The biggest impact is in the county-wide judicial race featuring Toni Young and Jessica Lynott. They're running for the bench being vacated by Judge Maureen Martinez. Young was appointed by Gov. Evers several months ago to fill the vacancy.
What happened and what's next?
Through the county's public information officer, the county clerk's office released this statement: "The municipalities have to deliver all their materials to our office today. We will be taking information directly from their results tapes to enter into another reporting system so we can prepare/print cumulative reports to put on the website. I am anticipating later today, but don’t have a specific time.”
As of noon, Racine Unified had no idea who got elected in two school board districts. The winner of one district was expected to be a write-in, as no candidates met the January filing deadline. Two candidates were on the ballot for the second seat.
