Northampton County Elections Office staff will post the Municipal Primary Election mail-in and absentee ballots results at approximately 8:00 p.m. tomorrow, May 16.

The unofficial results from the polls will be uploaded to the Northampton County Elections website (Northamptonvotes.com) as they come in. The unofficial results will not include write-in candidates’ results.

The process for tabulating write-in votes for the Municipal Primary Election is as follows: 

1. Once the polls are closed, the absentee/mail-in ballots and Election Day data will be uploaded to the Northampton County Board of Elections website.
2. The write-in information will first be given as a “total” count by County and then by each individual Precinct. There will ONLY be a count of the total number of write-ins with the Unofficial Results, not a tally by name.
3. The list of write-in votes will be printed by Precinct and presented to the Canvass Board starting Friday, May 19. Members of the Canvass Board (one Democrat & one Republican) at each station will count and tabulate the printed write-in results from each District.
4. The tabulated results will then be checked by the County of Northampton Elections Board. Once complete, the Canvass Board’s unofficial results will be posted on the website.
