Yucaipa District 1: Chelsea Brammer Ramirez Leads Greg Franklin in Early Vote Count

YUCAIPA, San Bernardino County — November 3, 2026. Chelsea Brammer Ramirez held an early lead in Yucaipa City Council District 1 as the county began reporting unofficial November 3 election returns.

What the first results show

The 10 p.m. report listed 1,344 votes (53.50%) for Brammer Ramirez and 1,167 votes (46.46%) for Greg Franklin. The 177-vote margin should be interpreted in context: officials reported just 5 of 11 precincts (45.45%) at that snapshot, with further ballot processing expected.

What is being decided?

District 1 voters are choosing a representative to the Yucaipa City Council, whose work includes land use, city finances, road improvements and neighborhood services. This result is specific to District 1 and must not be treated as a citywide mayoral election.

The registrar’s turnout figures at this point describe ballots included in the early reporting, not a final measure of participation. Residents may follow additional reports from the county rather than relying on a single election-night percentage.

Why these numbers are preliminary

These figures come from San Bernardino County Registrar of Voters’ 10 p.m. November 3, 2026 unofficial Election Night report. They are a snapshot, not certified results. The listed precincts reporting reflect election-night precinct activity; additional eligible ballots may remain to be counted. A candidate’s early lead should not be described as a final victory.
