LOS ANGELES — Although it might seem like it's taking a long time to count the ballots from Los Angeles County's primary election 10 days ago, officials say the process is moving along on schedule, with a final tally likely by July 1.
So far, more than 1.2 million ballots have been counted and publicly released countywide, with another vote total update scheduled for Friday.
Officials say 80% of the ballots counted so far were either mailed in or dropped off at voting centers or drop boxes — many of them in the final days of the voting period that concluded June 7.
