County staff presented election returns and sought formal certification. Staff reported 300 absentee ballots and 1,540 day-of ballots, for a total of 1,840 ballots cast among 6,384 registered Humboldt County voters. A supervisor moved to approve Resolution 2025-11 certifying the results; the motion was seconded and a roll-call vote was taken. Each named member present responded "Aye," and the chair declared the resolution approved unanimously.

The board thanked election workers for their service and discussed meeting logistics for related follow-up activities. No legal challenges or contested-race items were noted during the certification discussion.
