A recount of the votes cast during the June 5th Primary Election for nomination of a Republican candidate for the District 3 Cass County Board of Supervisors will be held tomorrow (Monday), in Atlantic. The recount takes place in the Supervisors Board Room at the Courthouse, beginning at 3-p.m.

Ballots cast in Wards 4 and 5 as well as Absentee will be re-counted at the request for Dana Halder, who came in a close second in votes to John Hartkopf. Immediately after Primary, Hartkopf had a total of 161 votes, Halder 157, and Linda Templeman 103.

A three-member Board was appointed to conduct the recounts, with two of the three selected by Hartkopf and Halder, the third selected by the two other appointees.
