| Description | More people voted in the San Diego mayor's race for write-in candidate Donna Frye than for Mayor Dick Murphy, according to a review yesterday of disputed ballots, but it would take court action for her to be declared the winner.
At the end of a full day of ballot examination, county elections workers at a warehouse in Kearny Mesa had reviewed 4,854 ballots cast for Frye that were not included in the official results of the Nov. 2 election.
Those numbers alone, likely to rise as the ballot review continues today, would put Frye 2,746 votes above Murphy's official total.
The ballots were disqualified because voters who wrote in Frye's name did not fill in a corresponding bubble, a requirement of state election law. |
