Recount in Wagoner assessor’s race

The July 27 Wagoner County Assessor primary election remained undecided as of Friday afternoon.

At a candidate’s request, the board will recount the ballots manually at 1 p.m. Aug. 3.

The results from that recount will determine who runs against Democrat Jason Rousselot in November — Darla Moffitt or Sandy Hodges.

Hodges edged Moffitt in the primaries with 2,547 votes, or 50 percent.

Moffitt received 2,515 votes, or 49 percent.

The election board hopes to finish the recount by 5 p.m. Tuesday, said Wagoner County Election Board Assistant Secretary Linda Dyer.
