“At least one municipality in this county uses multiple tabulators or a central count facility to process all absentee ballots they have received in time to be counted. This means that election results for the following municipalities, Lawrence, Scott, Allouez, Ashwaubenon, Bellevue, Hobart, Howard, Suamico, Wrightstown (V), De Pere, and Green Bay, will be uploaded to our website only after Central Count and Election Day polling results are merged and verified for each reporting unit/precinct completed, as they are received on Election Day.  Summary and Canvass Reports will have a header that states “Final Unofficial Report” when 100% of election results are received and posted to our website.*

Election results for the City of Green Bay are not anticipated to be received until midnight at the earliest due to the large volume of absentee ballots still needing to be processed.
