Final Angels Camp City Council Seat Is Currently Tied
Angels Camp, CA — There are three open seats on the Angels Camp City Council, and the top two vote-getters are Michael Chimente with 943 votes and in second is Scott Behiel with 841 votes.
The race for the third seat is tied, with Mary Kelly and Caroline Schirato both having 679 votes. In fifth is Michael Fish with 618 votes.
The winner of the third seat will be unknown for several days.
Calaveras County Clerk-Recorder Rebecca Turner reports, “There are roughly 5,100 vote-by-mail ballots yet to be counted. These ballots were picked up from drop boxes, vote centers and received through the mail today. We will continue counting ballots received through the mail and postmarked by November 5, 2024, through November 12, 2024.”
It can be noted that only a fraction of those 5,100 ballots include the Angels Camp City Council race, as many are from the unincorporated parts of the county.
In addition, Turner says, “Voters who received letters stating their signature was missing from the yellow return envelope or their signature did not match the voter registration file can return the form to cure through December 1, 2024.”
Turner indicates that the next election result update will be released ahead of 5 pm on Friday.
