For the seat on the Deschutes County Commission, Phil Chang was re-elected to his seat. If a candidate in that race earns 50% or more of the vote, they win the seat without the need for another vote in November. At over 60% of the vote, Chang won.

Meanwhile, the levy to support Bend-La Pine Schools appears poised to fail, with a majority of voters saying "no."
