Typically, we are able to do so at a regular meeting, but because Hennepin County will continue to process ballots postmarked as of November 3, 2020 but received up until November 10, 2020, they have directed all cities to canvass the municipal results on November 13, 2020. It should be noted all absentee ballots received through 3PM on Election Day have been counted and included in the preliminary unofficial results, so any additional ballots are not expected to impact the outcome of the races. The attached resolution has been updated with the final results as well as the write tallies have been included.
