The State Canvassing Board has certified this month's primary election results. Secretary of State Max Maxfield said Wednesday his office has notified any write-in candidates who received the most votes and met the 25-vote minimum of their nomination for a particular office. Those individuals have five days to accept their nominations. Maxfield says the general election ballot will be finalized as soon as all write-in candidates have notified his office of their acceptance or refusal of the nomination and petitions for independent candidates have been validated. According to state statute, Sept. 6 is the last day for the Secretary of State to certify to each county clerk the list of names for the general election ballot.
