Script in its entirety:
Hi, I’m Wendy Sartory Link, your Palm Beach County Supervisor of Elections. We had two elections in Palm Beach County on Tuesday, November 2nd: a Special Primary Election for U.S. House of Representatives, District 20 to elect the Democratic and Republican nominees, as well as a Municipal Election in the Town of Highland Beach on a municipal referendum. After the polls closed at 7 pm, I am happy to report that both elections were a success as 17,000 Palm Beach County voters cast their ballot either by mail, early or on Election Day at the polls. I would like to personally thank all of the voters for participating in these elections and all the election workers who did your part to ensure transparent and secure democracy in Palm Beach County. Thank you. Here are a few highlights from the Special Primary Election I wanted to share. There were 101,325 Palm Beach County voters in 151 precincts eligible to vote in both elections on Tuesday. Over 10,700 voted by mail; 1,100 voted at one of our 5 convenient Early Voting locations; and 5,200 voted at their assigned polling place on Election Day. The Special Primary Election for U.S. House of Representatives District 20 included both Palm Beach and Broward Counties. As of today, the election in the Democratic Primary for that election is too close to call, which may trigger a recount. Voters who cast their ballot by mail whose signature was not verified have been contacted, and they have until 5:00 PM on Thursday, November 4th to CURE their signature to ensure their vote counts in this election. If you have any questions about signature CURES, please contact our office at 561.656.6200. Military and overseas mail ballots that were postmarked by Election Day have until November 12th for their ballot to return to ensure their vote counts. We will continue to keep you updated on the special primary election results. You can follow us on social media or visit our website VotePalmBeach.gov for all the latest updates and information. Thank you again for voting and for participating in the election process.
