At last count, about 20,000 absentee ballots have been received by the Orange County Registrar Office for the hotly contested D47 congressional race between Loretta Sanchez (D) and Van Tran (R). The break down is roughly 44% Democrat, 40% Republican and 16% Independent. If this trend holds true, there might be about 100,000 to 120,000 total votes for D47 race. There are about 12,000 to 14,000 Vietnamese-American votes expected.
The San Jose city council race in D7 between Minh Duong and Madison Nguyen is also a very tight race. So far about 6,000 absentee ballots have turned in. If this trend holds true, there might be about 11,000 to 13,000 total votes for the election. Of course, this number will fluctuate depending on the World Series scheduling.
