The post-election buzz is still going strong in Coconino County, as nearly 71,000 ballots were counted in the November 5 election, bringing voter turnout to 78.29%, above the state average. The results aren’t final yet, though; the Coconino County Board of Supervisors will officially review the results on Tuesday.
Two races in Coconino County are close enough to trigger a recount: the third seat in the City of Page Councilmember race and the recall of David Auge. With margins this tight, Arizona law requires a recount whenever the difference is within 0.5%. This means every ballot will be carefully reviewed to ensure accuracy, as every vote counts in the outcome.
No new votes are cast; it’s the same ballots being reviewed to confirm the initial count was correct. If a recount is ordered, it starts with a test to ensure the equipment is working properly and can tally votes accurately. This process begins when the City of Page files with the Superior Court, and a court-ordered recount follows from there.
