Only 2 Northern California polling places could be affected by PG&E power outage

Pacific Gas & Electric notified 15,000 customers in 17 counties that the utility could cut power Tuesday, but officials also said only two polling places were in the area affected by the outage.

One polling place is in Los Gatos and the other is at the Calpine Geothermal Visitor Center in Middletown, Lake County, a two-hour drive north of San Francisco.

If the power does go out, PG&E said it wouldn’t happen until 9:30 p.m. on Election Day, well after polls close.

There are a total of 7,000 Election Day polling locations in PG&E’s service area, the utility said.

Amid total power outages expected Tuesday through Thursday, PG&E customers may be impacted in some areas of Napa, Sonoma, Contra Costa, Santa Clara and Alameda counties due to high winds and dry conditions expected this week .
