RENO, Nev. (AP) — Washoe County election officials say a recount has upheld Assemblyman Randy Kirner's 11-vote victory over fellow Republican Lisa Krasner.
County Registrar Luanne Cutler says the recount ended Friday when the Reno lawmaker's margin of victory held up after votes in seven precincts of Assembly District 26 were recounted.
A recount of all votes would have followed had officials found a discrepancy of 1 percent or five votes in any of the sample precincts.
The recount was requested by Krasner. Officials had estimated it would cost her campaign $2,000.
