SAN MATEO COUNTY (KRON/BCN) — Despite a coding problem that affected about 140 electronic voting machines in San Mateo County, two city officials from Daly City have moved on to a runoff election in November for the District 5 seat on the San Mateo County Board of Supervisors.

The coding problem was identified at about 7 a.m. — an hour before polls opened for Election Day — on some Hart InterCivic “eSlate” machines used by the county, assistant chief elections officer Jim Irizarry said.

The issue was with passcodes that connected individual machines to the central processing unit at election headquarters in San Mateo, Irizarry said.

The issue was resolved by 8:30 a.m. and during the time the electronic machines were down, people were still able to vote via paper ballots, he said.

There were a few minor hardware issues later in the day but Irizarry said shortly before polls closed at 8 p.m. that overall “the rest of the day has gone relatively smoothly.”

Daly City Vice Mayor David Canepa received nearly 46 percent of the vote, falling short of the 50 percent needed to avoid a runoff election. Canepa will face Councilman Michael Guingona, who finished with nearly 22 percent.

Brisbane Mayor Cliff Lentz had nearly 18 percent of the vote and Colma Vice Mayor Helen Fisicaro had about 15 percent.

The candidates are seeking to replace Supervisor Adrienne Tissier, who is being termed out after 12 years in office.

District 5 in San Mateo County includes Daly City, Brisbane, Colma, parts of San Bruno and South San Francisco, as well as unincorporated areas including Broadmoor.

The race is the first to be held with voters only from the district. In November 2012, nearly 60 percent of county voters approved a measure to change countywide supervisorial elections to a by-district system.

District 1 Supervisor Dave Pine and District 4 Supervisor Warren Slocum both ran unopposed for their seats.

Three school districts in San Mateo County all had parcel tax or bond measures approved by voters in Tuesday’s election, according to complete unofficial results.

Measure D in the Pacifica School District got about 76 percent approval for the 10-year renewal of an expiring $118 annual parcel tax, while Measure E in the Jefferson Union High School District got 73.5 percent approval for a new 10-year parcel tax of $60 annually to replace the current $48 one.

Both parcel tax measures needed two-thirds approval to pass.

Measure H in the Ravenswood City School District was a $26 million bond measure to update and repair school facilities and got more than 87 percent of the vote, way above the 55 percent needed for approval.

Nearly 75 percent of voters in County Service Area No. 1 approved Measure G, a four-year extension of a $65 parcel tax for fire protection and police services that needed two-thirds approval.

The last local measure on ballots in San Mateo County was Half Moon Bay’s Measure F, which would have required a supermajority of at least four of the city’s five councilmembers to approve the issuance of any lease revenue bonds.

Lease revenue bonds are defined in the measure as those “not backed by the full faith and credit of the government” and separate from general obligation bonds that require the approval of voters.

The measure failed with nearly 55 percent voting no. It needed majority approval to pass.Bay City News contributed to this report
