There are approximately 10,000 to 13,000 ballots left to count. Many people waited until yesterday or last minute to drop of ballots. The next election update is Thursday, March 7 at 2 p.m. I already did some follow up with Humboldt elections as well as talking to people since last night's final report.
There are 648 unresolved write in in the Humboldt Superior Court judge race, even if all of them go to last minute spoiler Jessica Watson; it will not make a difference. In the final election report, Ms. Van Dyke has 60.39 % and 10, 495 votes. Gregory Kreis has 39.61% and 6,883 votes. Add in the write ins and Ms. Van Dyke still wins by 58%. She has 25% lead after the final election report. She will lead in the uncounted ballots.
If Kreis and Watson want to be petty and childish which they are and wait until tomorrow's update at 2 p.m. and next Thursday's update at 2 p.m for the inevitable, they can continue to reiterate the fact that they are losers personally and professionally. Or they can stop wasting everyone's time and face reality. They lost. The good ole boys, gals, lawyers, law enforcement, Humboldt connected endorsers and political irrelevant relics like Salzshit lost.
Kreis, Watson and the good ole boy chosen local media, their ads, their smears and lies couldn't save Humboldt's Humpty Dumpty.
The judge's race in this primary election shows that the good ole boys and gals can be defeated with the right candidate, a great grassroots team, independent reporting and the power of the people.
