Summary
100% of precincts are now reporting in Shasta County, with Measure B ahead 12,171 votes to 9,707 — 55.63% of 21,878 ballots counted — and its margin widening over several hours.
Joanna Francescut also kept control of the county clerk race, leading incumbent Clint Curtis 11,876 to 9,178, or 56.41% of 21,054 votes, though officials said many vote-by-mail ballots still remain.
In District 1, Redding Council member Erin Resner led with 2,192 votes, or 53.82%, over Supervisor Kevin Crye and Richard Gallardo, and her advantage also grew as returns came in.
District 5 remained the closest major race: Mike Gallagher held 48.88% with 1,955 votes, short of the 50% needed to avoid a fall runoff against Supervisor Chris Kelstrom and Gary Oxley.
The updated tally reinforces the broader picture from election night: voters are on track to replace election chief Curtis while backing Measure B, a charter change that would reshape county election procedures.
