The May 19 Special Election final results are in.
The County results are from the Humboldt County Elections office website.
The independent results are generated by running Ballot Browser against the Transparency Project's ballot images, using a vote threshold "lightness" of 226 (on a scale of 0 [black] to 255 [white]). That is, a vote oval that registered an average brightness of 226/255 or lower was counted as a vote. Approximately 50 ballots that were rejected by Ballot Browser were hand counted. These rejections were mostly due to excessive skew in the image.
The county and independent results agree to 0.01% on five of the six propositions. On proposition 1C, they agree to 0.02%.
As time permits, we may try to track down these (very minor) differences.
