CBJ MUNICIPAL ELECTION UNOFFICIAL RESULTS UPDATED 10/4/2024

The CBJ Election Staff are continuing to process and count ballots for the October 1 Regular Municipal Election. The preliminary results from election night are now updated with all those that have been reviewed, approved, and scanned as of Friday, October 4. Those results are posted on the CBJ Elections webpage at https://juneau.org/clerk/elections.

There are over 1,000 ballots remaining to be reviewed and processed that were received on Election Day or in the mail. The CBJ Elections team will continue to receive ballots via USPS. Ballot review and processing will continue next week and the next set of unofficial updated results to be published Friday, October 11.

Part of the ballot review process includes sending “Cure Letters” to voters informing them of additional steps needed before their ballots can be counted. This happens for a number of reasons such as a missing signature, missing personal identifier, no reference signature on file etc. CBJ voters are asked to check their mail and respond to any cure letters right away so their ballots may be forwarded for additional review and counting, if eligible.

The Canvass Review Board will meet October 14 & 15 to review and certify the election. The official/final results will be posted online once the Canvass Review Board and Election Official certify the election on October 15. Certification may be delayed by up to 3 days on a case-by-case basis as may be required.

Reminder: no witness signature required to vote in CBJ municipal election

With multiple elections taking place this fall, it’s easy to get confused about different dates and requirements. Remember that you can always check the CBJ Elections website at juneau.org/clerk/elections to find accurate information about when, where, and how to vote in the October 1, 2024 CBJ Regular Municipal Election.

A witness signature is not required to vote in CBJ municipal elections. Voters only need to provide their own signature and a personal identifier. Carefully read the instructions on your ballot return envelope or check the Notice of Election for a complete description of how to certify and return your ballot.

You may remember providing a witness signature in the past. Although witness signatures were originally part of CBJ’s vote by mail process, that requirement was removed from the code in 2021. You can read or search the complete elections code online at juneau.org/law-department/cbj-code.
