San Luis Obispo County Clerk completed vote counts and certified Lynn Compton winner in of the race for Supervisor of San Luis Obispo’s 4th District on Friday, June 22nd, 2018. The race was very close with the final tally giving incumbent Supervisor Compton only 60 votes over newcomer Jimmy Paulding. Compton’s 50.16% lead over Paulding’s 49.84% was an unexpectedly close race. Large money donors from outside the county failed to push out Compton and upset the board’s conservative lead.
