Reading this local result
The relevant seat boundary is third versus fourth. These are Tulare County school district returns; the district label identifies which local governing board is being elected.
These are preliminary returns from the November 3 general election. The official canvass can change totals and rankings. Reporting all precincts does not establish that every valid ballot has been processed or that an outcome has been certified. Any district crossing county lines requires the other counties’ returns as well.
