Everything is trending right for Fourth District hopeful Natalie Arroyo after the Elections Office has officially tallied a little more than 9,000 ballots since last Friday.

Arroyo now has 52.8 percent of the vote — way up from 50.8 a week ago — and can now feel pretty confident about her chances of avoiding a November runoff against second-place finisher Mike Newman.

SUPERVISOR, DISTRICT FOUR
ARROYO2,45552.88%
BERGEL64213.85%
NEWMAN1,54633.30%

The Clerk-Recorder/Registrar of Voters Race is still headed into runoff territory, but the race for first place has dramatically narrowed between candidates Tiffany Hunt Nielsen and Juan Pablo Cervantes.

CLERK/RECORDER/REGISTRAR
HERSHBERGER2,93611.97%
CERVANTES10,66343.46%
HUNT NIELSEN10,93544.57%

All the other races: Much the same. Incumbent Steve Madrone cruising to victory in the Fifth District; DA candidate Stacey Eads with a large lead; Auditor-Controller candidate Cheryl Dillingham with an even larger lead; Alex Stillman with an easy victory in Arcata.

A little more than 9,000 more ballots remain to be counted.
