PRECERTIFICATION OF 2025 GENERAL ELECTION RESULTS ISSUED YESTERDAY

A precertification of the 2025 general election results was issued yesterday by Westmoreland County’s election board.  The Trib reports that over 200 races ended in ties after the tallying of over 22,000 write-in votes.  Those ties will be broken by the drawing of numbers.  Ties will be broken at noon on Nov. 21 at the courthouse. Candidates involved in those tied races can appear in person and draw a numbered pill from a glass jar to determine the winner. Election bureau staff will draw for candidates who do not attend, Ross said.
