S.F. election update: Only 3,300 ballots left to be counted citywide
Briefly

Elections Director John Arntz noted, "Most of the provisional ballots for D11 are now reviewed and processed and those votes are included in the preliminary results reports." This implies that the counting process has reached a critical stage, and only a few ballots remain outstanding.
Chyanne Chen's lead in District 11 is a narrow 190 votes, with the latest counts showing her at 11,971 to Michael Lai's 11,781. As the ballot count is nearly complete, the prospects for a comeback by Lai seem dim.
In the Board of Education race, current Board President Matt Alexander has a lead of 250 votes over challenger John Jersin, indicating a competitive election for the board's last seat. The current tallies position Alexander at 122,186 votes, and Jersin at 121,936 votes, suggesting a possible tightening of the margins.
Only around 3,300 ballots remain to be counted citywide, significantly narrowing the likelihood of any drastic changes in election outcomes. With a total of 409,747 ballots counted so far, this represents a voter turnout of 78.46%.
