Ward 2 Recount produces a tie!
May 27th, 2008 by Shawn
Can you believe this?
A recount was held today to try and determine a winner in Ward 2. The result was a tie.
Incumbent Carl White and Patty Higgins have now agreed to request a judicial recount. They will each ask the judge to scrutinize up to 15 disputed ballots, rather than do a full recount of every ballot cast.
In the event of a tie after the judicial recount, the winner could be determined by drawing a name out of a box.
Now that’s democracy for you!
