A recount in the District 51 Maine House race will take place next week, a spokeswoman for the Department of the Secretary of State said.
The department has scheduled the recount for Mon., Nov. 26 at 1 p.m., requested by Buzz Pinkham (R-Damariscotta).
The recount, which is open to the public, will take place at Department of Public Safety headquarters on Commerce Drive in Augusta.
The candidates’ representatives and Department of the Secretary of State staff will review every ballot by hand to determine the official vote tally.
That recount will take place at a date and time to be determined.
