Pima County voters cast 21,000 provisional ballots on Election Day. More than 19,000 were deemed eligible for counting.
Provisional ballots are cast on Election Day when there are questions regarding a voter’s registration or if they are in the wrong polling place.
The ballots will bring the county's turnout to more than 75 percent of registered voters.
