REAL-TIME RESULTS: Berkeley's 2020 Primary Election Races

BERKELEY, CA — Nearly 920,000 people are registered to vote here in Alameda County, according to the latest voter registration numbers from Secretary of State Alex Padilla’s office. Turnout was expected to be strong for Tuesday’s election as voters made their choice in the presidential primary, voted on the largest proposed bond issue in state history, and decided whether to raise the county sales tax, Measure C.

Statewide, there are 20.4 million registered voters, an increase of 3.1 million since the last presidential election in 2016. In fact, 80 percent of eligible Californians are registered to vote, the highest heading into a California Presidential Primary in the past 68 years.

“California entered 2020 with a record 20.4 million registered voters—and I only expect that figure to climb as we reach the Presidential Primary in March and General Election in November,” said Secretary of State Alex Padilla.

Secretary of State Alex Padilla also noted that high school students are taking advantage of a new program to pre-register to vote, starting when they are 16-years-old. Teens who pre-register have their registration automatically activated when they turn 18. As of Feb. 3, there were 156,022 pre-registered 16- and 17-year-olds.

“Whenever I talk to high students it is clear that they care about their communities and democracy,” said Padilla. “Pre-registration provides a platform for young people to begin entering the electoral process before they reach 18. I am so proud that pre-registration has now helped over a half million California teens take their first steps into the democratic process. I am challenging California teens, school administrators, and parents to help us add another 100,000 pre-registrations by the November 2020 General Election.”

Padilla has visited 82 high schools to promote the pre-registration program.
