I'm pretty disgusted with the choices. There isnt a candidate that I feel comfortable throwing my support behind and I dont know who I will vote for at present. Upon first glance, Ogden appeared to share many of my views, but I do not approve of his stand on open borders. I suppose I will write in another AIP candidate.

I don't remember exactly, but during the primary I think it was mendocino that had around a 35 per cent write in on the AIP ticket. Alameda or contra costa was a close second at 32 percent. When I asked both counties to know the names of the write ins on those ballots. Both said they don't track write ins who are not authentic pre-qualified candidates

Hello,I am interested in obtaining some results of the 2010 gubernatorial election that are not posted on the website. Specifically, the AIP party shows a bigger percentage of write-in candidates than either certified candidate. I am wondering if the names of the write in candidate(s) in this race can be released for research purposes.Davi RodriguesPublic Document DistributorsPO Box 160965Sacramento, CA 05816



Hi Davi
Unfortunately, we only track and publish certified write-in candidates.

Thank you

Subject: Re: Write in candidate results

Is there any way to obtain the results. Once again, the number of write-in for that particular race seems rather out of line with other races. I believe it was 40%, which I've never seen before. I was trying to find out what was the driving factor

____________________________________________

I think your numbers are a little off. The AIP write ins for Governor is around 28%. Just as a credibility check I looked at Contra Costa totals. The write ins for the same race are over 26%. I don't know what other counties experienced but it should be easy to look at their web sites to see if they had the same experience. What you are asking for is not impossible but it will take quite a bit of staff time. If you wait until after the results are certified we may be able to look at some ballots and see if there are any patterns.
