A recount also was scheduled in the House District 51 race between Democrat Michael Devin and Republican Alan Pinkham, but Pinkham withdrew his request for a recount, leaving Devin the winner.
All told, the Secretary of State’s Office held recounts in 12 legislative races, and in the commissioner’s race. None of them resulted in a change in the Election Day outcome.
