BATTLE CREEK, MI (WKZO AM/FM) – The race for the state House between incumbent Democrat Jim Haadsma and Republican challenger Steve Frisbie might get a recount.
Frisbie won the election, but by just 61 votes as of yesterday. Haadsma’s attorney Chris Trebilcock says a recount could be requested after the State Board of Canvassers certifies the state’s vote count, which needs to be done by Monday.
Frisbie had a lead of nearly 1,400 votes before an error with a flash drive overwrote 2,800 uncounted absentee ballots, and that lead was reduced to 61 when those were restored.
