The results include the mail-in ballots that were received from after 8pm on Election Day until 5pm Nov. 6, and were postmarked by Nov. 3rd.

Officials say postmarked ballots have been included in the results based on the current court ruling and guidance from the state.

According to a statement by the County, they will remove the votes from the results if there are further rulings or guidance from the state.

Now that the County of Berks has completed the canvass of votes cast, the five day review period has begun. The Election Board is expected to meet to certify the results on November 25th.
