Matt Hansen, Lancaster County Clerk

I was sworn in as Lancaster County Clerk this morning, and I am honored to serve our community again in this new role. Thank you Lancaster County!

Thank you Lancaster County! The final results are in, and we won by 2,466 votes. I'm excited to get to work as your next County Clerk.

On election night we knew our campaign for County Clerk was in the lead, but we also knew that there were a significant number of ballots left to count. Today the election commissioner provided an update, and I am excited to share that our lead has grown to 2,060 votes!

There are still around 3,850 ballots left to count, so we will be waiting a bit longer for our official and final results. It seems that the counting will finish sometime next week.

Thank you to everyone who helped our campaign from start to finish, we would not be here without your support. I am looking forward to sharing more good news next week. -Matt
