Results Of The River Pines Public Utilities District Election

The unofficial results of the River Pines Public Utilities District mail-in ballot to elect two new directors are in – and Lylis McCutcheon and Jackie Keehan were the top two vote-getters. McCutcheon received 37 votes, or 29.4% of the vote, Keehnen received 32 votes, or 25.4% of the vote. Carol Albaugh and Sally Upchurch Hopkins were just one vote apart with 29 and 28 votes respectively. 213 registered voters were eligible to vote in the River Pines PUD election, and 79 votes were cast. These results have yet to be certified by the Amador County Election Department, and are obviously very close, but assuming these results stand, McCutcheon and Keehnen will take their seats on the first Friday in December.
