The office finished tabulating local ballots as of 7 p.m. Wednesday, according to an announcement Thursday morning. County residents cast 163,611 votes in the election, meaning that just under a third of the county\u2019s 501,759 active voters returned a ballot.<\/p>\n

The other competitive local races on the ballot were five primaries for the seats in the state legislature, three primaries for the El Paso County commissioners races and the Republican nomination for county assessor.<\/p>\n
None of the results in the primary election that were within El Paso County have changed since election officials released the initial results Tuesday night. Full results are available through the secretary of state\u2019s website and the county website.<\/a><\/p>\n Deputy Chief Clerk Kristi Ridlen said the Clerk and Recorder\u2019s Office will continue to cure ballots with signature issues and accept ballots returned by military and overseas voters until July 8. The county will release the final update of unofficial results on July 9.<\/p>\n
