(Atlantic, IA) – The Cass County Board of Supervisors held a very brief Special Meeting this (Friday) afternoon with regard to a request to Order a recount of the Atlantic School District Director At-Large race from the November 4, 2025 City/School Election.

In attendance in the Supervisor’s Board Room were Supervisors Green and Wendy Richter, along with Cass County Auditor/Election Commissioner Kathy Somers. Supervisors Mark “O’Brien and Bernard Pettinger joined electronically.

O’Brien made the motion to act on the Order as requested.

(The qualifying request was made by from candidate Justin Williams, who received less than 1% difference of the votes cast than the winner.)

Cass County Board of Supervisors Special meeting, 11-14-25

The Board’s approval allows the recount to take place beginning at 9-a.m. Monday, Nov. 17th. Because there were no other, additional qualifying requests for a recount, no action was taken on that part of the special agenda, Friday.
