FINANCIAL IMPACT
Approval of this item will not result in the use of additional Discretionary General Funding (Net County Cost) as the acceptance of the Certified Election Results is non-financial in nature, and appropriation for the minimal staffing required to present the results to the Board of Supervisors was included in the 2021-22 Registrar of Voters (ROV) budget.
