Meanwhile, the latest San Jose Inside Power Poll finds that voters don’t much care about the fate of the former city hall.

Anh Colton, 48, of Cupertino, has had no law enforcement experience in the last five years. California law requires that candidates for sheriff have at least one year of law enforcement experience within the last five years. 

The approximately 25,000 ballots counted by the Registrar of Voters Elections Division June 9 didn’t change any trends or flip any projected outcomes, but did suggest the early, expected outcomes are more likely to hold.

With 33.6% – 56,011 votes – of nearly 167,000 votes reported June 8 at 5pm, Jonsen led retired sheriff’s captain Kevin Jensen, who had the support of 30.5% – 50,951 – of the votes.
