REDDING, Calif. - Ballot counting continues in Shasta County after a power issue overnight temporarily brought operations to a stop at the elections office in Redding. Just after midnight Wednesday, the Shasta County Elections Office went dark after losing power, halting ballot counting for more than an hour and a half. Shasta County Clerk and Registrar of Voters Clint Curtis says the problem stemmed from an electrical box that shuts off and back on each night at midnight.
