9:45 p.m.: Ballot count underway, first precinct tallied
Guam Election Commission staff started feeding ballots into their vote counting machines, and one precinct from Yona was the first to see its ballots tabulated.
Ballots hit the machines around 9:30 p.m., about an hour earlier than they did during the Primary Election.
GEC Executive Director Maria Pangelinan said they were looking to keep the count going smoothly, but declined to predict when the final results might come out.
9:30 p.m.: Terlaje-Perez team arrives at camp
The Democratic team of Sens. Therese Terlaje and Sabina Perez arrived at their Hagåtña campaign headquarters before 9:30 p.m. The team greeted their supporters and thanked them. They opened the food table with a prayer.
8:30 p.m. Ballots arrive at UOG for counting
Just over 30 minutes after polls closed around the island, officials from Precinct 11A, Chalan Pago-Ordot, arrived at the University of Guam Calvo Field House with ballot boxes in tow.
A steady stream of school buses hauling ballots and officials from other precincts were right behind 11A.
Officials from 11A reported a good turnout compared to this year’s Primary Election, and smooth going the whole day.
The Guam Election Commission will have to give precinct officials the all-clear before they start running ballots through their vote counting machines.
